tifs are perfectly fine... they support many bit depths, mip mapping, and
tiling. i did a comparison to exr as a texture format years ago and
OIIO/Arnold liked the tif files better.

Tiff are indeed fine - unfortunately many apps have not implemented the
full API of Tiff and support multiple channels.
Does this tiff load in the flipbook or fxtree?
I saw an bug report here about the latest mental ray version not being able
to load tiff that had more than 4 channels, maybe

no, it says.. 'No file parser to read this image type :
c:\temp\7channels.tif'
it seems to be just the extra channels throwing the parser off, cause it
opens the 4 channels 16bit flavor fine.
also, this isn't mental ray unless softimage is somehow using mental ray's
image library to load files

I've had success with 16bpp greyscale tiffs (heightmaps mostly) but
generally I use exr if I'm going above 8bpp, just a much more
predictable format when extra depth is required.
