>From the Tiff6 documentation, it seems that a tiff image is supposed to have a BitsPerSymbol value for each sample in the image.

But from TiffDirectory implementation, it seems that we hold a single "uint16 td_bitspersample" value for all samples.

Is it that all samples always have same bit-depth? it doesnt seems that way for documentation, for example it says that a 16-bit image usally has 5/6/5 bits per sample.

I also noticed a "uint16* td_sampleinfo;" in TiffDirectory, is it something related to this?
