Hi, thank you so much for the tool.

I was able to run this on a directory with 493 ARW files of the Sony A7R III.

All but 14 files were successfully updated.

On these 14 I'm getting the error "Error: Not a valid TIFF".

However, I know those files are not corrupted because they open fine on Capture 1 Pro.

I'm trying to rewrite the -sonymodelid to ILCE-7RM2 so I can open these files in Lightroom.

Does anyone know how I can get these 14 remaining files updated? Thank you.

If you send me one of these, I'll take a look (philharvey66 at gmail.com)

...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).

I got the sample.  The file is corrupt.  It is full of binary zeros.  Likely some sort of disk error.

There is no way that this file can be opened by Capture 1 Pro.

Edit:  But the error message is a bit confusing.  I will change this to "Not a valid ARW".
