Okay, I did some research today

Also, anyone knows why LensType is used instead of LensModel for detecting the
lens? It looks like recent change has added LensType parsing (which was also
mentioned in the sources, http://dev.exiv2.org/issues/879 is the change).

The problem is though that Lensfun expects a "cutted" version for which there's
a special case for Nikon lenses in LensFunIface. LensModel seems to be the
correct for Olympus though. I have submitted a patch to reviewboard to add
LensModel for checked tags, url: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/109017/

Output from exiv2 -pt:
Exif.OlympusEq.LensType                      Byte        6  Olympus M.Zuiko
Digital 14-42mm F3.5-5.6 II
Exif.OlympusEq.LensSerialNumber              Ascii      32  ABGA07554
Exif.OlympusEq.LensModel                     Ascii      32  OLYMPUS M.14-42mm
F3.5-5.6 II

Unfortunately for me the detection algorithm will give two results, both for
"normal" and "R" version of the lens and doesn't thus autoselect anything.
