I realize hat this pyexiv2 is an extension of libexiv2, but I cannot quite understand if or how I could get the number of entries for a given group for a specific image or, iterate over a specific group and get selected tags other than a hard-code switch statement

This is the metadata that exiv2 could read. When pyexiv2 opens an image, it automatically reads all metadata and returns a dict. It does not support reading only one tag at a time.

Thank you. I am very new at python way of doing things, so this gives me a place to start.
