Title: IMPORTANT: Please read if you downloaded ExifTool 6.51 or 6.52

A bug was introduced in ExifTool 6.51 which could result in a corrupted
image (!!) when rewriting TIFF-format files containing an unknown trailer
(this includes all TIFF-based RAW formats except CR2).  The good news is
that unknown trailers should be very uncommon, and nobody has reported any
problems yet, so with any luck I caught this before it affected anyone. But
please update immediately to 6.53 if you downloaded 6.51 or 6.52.

Sorry for any inconvenience.
