Then I would checkout the ReadTIFF package by Simon Chandler on Mathsource. Be forewarned this package needs the fast binary files package by Todd Gayley also on mathsource. I have not been able to get this latter package to work on my system ( PC running NT4.0 with math. ver 3.0). However it does seem to install smoothly on a typical powermac. An alternative would to check out the electronic supplement to A.B. Watson's article in The Mathematica Journal. He has a ShowImage[] command which will display imagedata stored as a matrix (list of lists) of grayvalues.
