ok. here is what i did...
i've copy (also tried to move) from within the digikam images with hebrew comments, and all works just fine.
now, when i open the moved/copied images in konqueror and view the meta-info tab (properties view) i get the hebrew text correctly.
moving images (using the konqueror) and then checking the text comments inside digikam shows unreadable chars. (example:  × ×“×‘ ×‘×’×™× ×”).
so... what i asuume is that digikam is reading the hebrew text using the wrong encoding from the exif comment. (maybe reading hebrew iso-8859-8 and converting it to utf-8, while it is in utf-8 in first place. it's only and idea ! )

kindly,
nadav :-)
btw. amazing applications !!!
