Description
I am trying to automate my image reduction. I use the individual ccdproc functions (subtract_bias, subtract_dark, etc) since I need to do an image linearization between the bias and dark subtractions. I always get a TypeError from ccdproc.subtract_dark() saying that both image and dark need to be type CCDData. However, as you can see in the code below I've implemented the exact test from subtract_dark before calling and it never triggers. Bias subtraction works fine. If I comment out the isinstance test in ccdproc.subtract_dark everything works fine.
I can provide the images (~11MB total) and/or FITS headers if that would help.

if not (isinstance(img, CCDData) and isinstance(dark, CCDData)):
raise TypeError("This error never triggers")
img_dark = ccdproc.subtract_dark(img,dark,exposure_time='EXPOSURE',exposure_unit=u.s, scale=True)
