Hello Nate and fellow NLP community,

I really enjoy using NLP and find especially the Metadata section super helpful to tag my images and be able to sort them.  
It’s an super awesome and efficient tool - finally a usable interface for exiftool on OSX and so much more usable to integrate it into Lightroom.

There’s one issue I found now after scanning my first ever 645 roll:

- when selecting the 645 format it always switches to 35mm panoramic

I did a little video and uploaded it here:

_Things I did try:_

- restart Lightroom
- restart the Laptop
- upgrade from NLP 2.0 to 2.2

_I’m running:_

- OSX 10.14.6
- Adobe Lightroom Classic 10.11 - Camera Raw 13.1
- NLP v2.2

any help is apprectiated 🙂

I’m experiencing the same exact issue. Looks like our machines/configs are the same as well.

Yes, sorry everyone. I’m aware of this issue and fix is already in for v2.3. It’s just taking me a bit longer to get this newer version out. Thanks for you patience!
