A TIFF parser is needed which should be able to support TIFF and all TIFF-based formats. These include Nikon NEF, Canon CR2 and others.
The existing Jpeg Exif parser should eventually be replaced with the new TIFF parser as well.

Updated by Andreas Huggel 1436 days ago

File formats which contain a block of Exif data (like JPEG) will need a new Image subclass to extract/insert that block. It can then use the TIFF parser to de/encode it.
