RE: DSLR Cameras - What does that button do? pt.II - RAW VS JPEG
What about a .tiff image. Whats the difference?
Great comparative post too.

tiff file is also lossless format, but most dslr cameras don't save it as that file, just raw & jpg. If I get my hands on a camera that saves as tiff I'll post it.
Also tiff files are massive and don't have any advantages over raw format.
Good info. Thanks. Why produce a tiff image then if RAW is compatible but more manageable size wise?
Just like any other image format eg; gif, png all serve different purpose.
I could be wrong on this, but raw file is data dump straight from the camera sensor to a file, and jpg/tiff is a saved file.
Now you got me intrested :]
