Have you tried Photo?:
http://www.zope.org/Members/rbickers/Photo
It's a stable and allows you to store files externally too.

And in order to read Tiffs you can use the extension I wrote:
http://www.zope.org/Members/ausum/Iptc_Exif_reading_support
It's meant to retrieve Iptc and Exif data, but as that makes neccesary to
parse the file, it tries to do it using PIL. Tiffs are stored in their own
format, but the thumbnails and resized images are rendered and stored to
jpgs.
