[Image-SIG] how can I open 32 float tiff with PIL?

[Ding Wei]

Hi there guys,

I'm new to the Python and PIL. I want to open a 32 float tiff file with pil.
But I always get a error like this:

raise IOError("cannot identify image file")
IOError: cannot identify image file

I tried two different method to do the open：

1.
import Image
im = Image.open(’test.tif‘）

2.
import Image
fp = open(’test.tif‘, ’rb’)
im = Image.open(fp）

8 bit RGB file works just fine, but neither 16bit or 32 bit can be opened.

Did I do something wrong?

Thank you for your help!
