I use EXIFTool to extract the EXIF metadata from images:

<http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/>

I do this dynamically for all of the 8,000+ photos on FreeLargePhotos.com.
Here is an example of the text output:

<http://freelargephotos.com/photos/003805/exif.txt>

From there, you could parse that into whatever you wanted for import. Since
you would have the filename that may be sufficient to map it into the right
place in DigiTool (but I'm unfamiliar with it).
