Sony SRF Tags

The maker notes in SRF (Sony Raw Format) images contain 7 IFD's with family 1 group names SRF0 through SRF6. SRF0 and SRF1 use the tags in this table, while SRF2 through SRF5 use the tags in the next table, and SRF6 uses standard EXIF tags. All information other than SRF0 is encrypted, but thanks to Dave Coffin the decryption algorithm is known. SRF images are written by the Sony DSC-F828 and DSC-V3.
