TIFF/EP

TIFF/EP (also spelled TIFF-EP) is a subtype of TIFF developed as an ISO standard for electronic photography. It is standardized by ISO 12234-2, titled "Electronic still-picture imaging – Removable memory – Part 2: TIFF/EP image data format." TIFF/EP is based on a subset of TIFF and a subset of the JEITA Exif standard, with some differences and extensions. The 2001 standard has not been adopted per se by most camera manufacturers, although some proprietary raw formats and the DNG format claim to be compatible with TIFF/EP.

Identification
TIFF tag 37398 ("TIFF/EPStandardID") is present. However, most files containing this tag would be better identified as DNG, or one of a number of other digital negative formats.
