Hi - I use a Leaf AFi-II 12 (same as Aptus-II 12 but just branded different) digital back, and I'm having a tough time getting it supported in some open-source tooling.
One of my issues is that, for a given file, exiv2 does not decode any metadata from one of my files:

Any pointers as to how I could get exiv2 to correctly decode the metadata for my back's files, so that I can get started on getting it supported in e.g. darktable and similar tools?
Thanks! I can provide RAW samples if required - they are around 100MB in size.
