This is well before my time but certainly seems like it could be done in fewer bytes. However, as a test I'm tempted to modify this reader in the RandomAccessStream...

Exiftool has a very long, sometimes make/model-specific process for determining filetype. The library could probably do something similar, although it will take a lot of research. Maybe add it to...

As implemented, metadata-extractor needs to know the type early to decide which concrete objects to create. If parsed data changes the Directory you originally thought should be used, it's implied...

@Nadahar Could you point out some of the images that are slow? I could run some performance tests on the .NET PR vs .NET vs Java and see if RandomAccessStream...

I think this could work similar to ExifTool. Specific tags per directory are pre-marked as "binary" and then not read into memory by default if above a certain count (512,...

... a PR in the .NET project that is. I'm not as fast in the Java project.

I wonder if this could be done with some kind of 'script' engine instead of code? That would keep it open to change or override by end users. It could...

It seems to work for these images, but it's only implemented in the .NET project. I'm currently working on expanded Sony/Leica/Samsung support. In any case, I don't think any of...

There are likely quite a few missing tags in these. My first attempt only used a couple of images out of that RAW website to get the directories started. I...

I believe this is fixed in #214 but please confirm.
