Not directly. The Tiff library used in hugin happens to be very vocal
when encountering files that do not specify all the parameters that
define the type of image inside the tiff. However, some of the programs
creating those tiff files use other libraries, and those libraries seem
to be a little bit sloppy in this regard. Here, you program that created
the tiff files felt it to be obvious that the sampletype tag should be
unsigned 16 bit integer and therefore refrained from explicitly
specifying this. libtiff, however, expected this tag to be specified and
complains that id wasn't. Because it probably guessed correctly, the
images are displayed by hugin without strange colors, so no harm caused
here.

If you really want to get rid of this error message, you have several
options:
o complain to the producer of hte program you created the tiff files
that the sampletype tag is missing the the tiffs produced by hi software.
o convert the tiffs in a program that properly rewrites them.

Because these messages are irritating at the most, I'd recommend to
simply ignore them.

With kind regards
