- Preserve fractional seconds when extracting Samsung TimeStamp times
- Patched to avoid reporting Photoshop:ProgressiveScans unless PhotoshopFormat is Progressive
- Patched to test QuickTime UserData tags with default 0x0000 language code to see if they contain UTF8 characters, and if so assume UTF8 encoding and ignore the CharsetQuickTime setting

Added:

- some verbose warnings when reading Nikon Z-camera NEF files
- decoding of a couple of Nikon Z9 tags for newer firmware versions
