My camera also saves in JPEG. I do have the option to save as TIFF also but that sucks up memory cards left and right. I bring my original JPEGs into Photoshop then save them as either TIFFs or PSDs for manipulation. I save the originals exactly as they are and try to never actually work with those originals. The Tiff/PSD copies are what I manipulate. That way I have the originals to go back to if I need too. Also Photoshop allows you to set the level of compression for JPEGs. You can actually save them with no compression at all and that will actually INCREASE the size of the file. I cleaned up a few JPEG to TIFFS I had and got them printed in 8x10 for presents this year. The Photo proccessing place I use prefers TIFFs and he also uses MAC where I us a PC. They came out great too! Photoshop still seems like the program of choice for me! Magick Michael
