I can reproduce this problem with any TIFF files from my old camera Olympus 
C3000Z. The problem is relevant of dcraw parse method to check if the file is 
a RAW or a TIFF file. I need to update the code in digiKam for that. I will 
do it.

To make any tests, can you place your tiff file in a web space area for 
download ? Thanks in advance.

yes, using KDE svn repository. There is no tarball. Warning, 0.9.0 is unstable 
and not yet finished. Do not using in production.

There are 2 branch in svn : a 'stable' and an unstable named 'trunk'. Only 
trunk support better RAW files (in 16 bits for example)
