Re: digiKam 8.8.0 is released

The ORF image is now supported, the image size was not found.
We don't currently support Pentax. The image also only has one center point. 
So, we would need multiple samples with different focus points. We would need a 
screenshot of the camera display showing the focus point to determine the 
size, etc., to support Pentax.
