Fuji "film mode" tags not read correctly

Hi.

I'm trying to do some scripting around film simulations used when shooting JPEGs and find that on images from my X-Pro2 exiftool does not find the film simulation mode tag depending on which simulation is used.

For example it does work here for Classic Chrome and ProNeg High, but does not work for Acros. I can provide example files if that helps.

Any pointers?

I'm using the latest exiftool and a Fujifilm X-Pro2.

Sure.  Send me a set of samples where only the film simulation mode is changed between images and I'll take a look.  Make sure to include all the once that "don't work", plus at least one that does.  You can mail them to philharvey66 at gmail.com

Sent an email with a link to an archive and some more info. Thanks for your help and the great tool you have created!

I got the samples, thanks.  I need to know which mode was used for each image.

I got your response via email.  The new film modes will be decoded by ExifTool 10.24.  Note that they are reflected in a combination of the FilmMode and Saturation tags.
