## Sony Tags

The maker notes in images from current Sony camera models contain a wealth of information, but very little is known about these tags. Use the ExifTool Unknown (-u) or Verbose (-v) options to see information about the unknown tags.

## 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 through SRF5 use these Sony tags, while SRF6 uses standard EXIF tags. All information other than SRF0 is encrypted, but thanks to Dave Coffin the decryption algorithm is known.

> 0x0001 | DataKey | N | (key to decrypt the rest of the file from the end of the maker notes)

## Sony SR2Private Tags

The SR2 format uses the DNGPrivateData tag to reference a private IFD containing these tags.
