This is a subject which I 'm struggling a little to get my head around. Faced with a choice of 8-bit JPG, 8-bit TIF or 16-bit TIF are there any compelling reasons as to why I should one use one format over another?
I normally use a high quality JPG to save my images but having blown up all three types in Photoshop I can't see any real difference, other than the obvious larger file sizes produced by the TIF's. I've looked around on the web but haven't had much luck so thought someone on RR might be able to enlighten me.
