TIFF straight out of the *istD are 8 bit. > It's hard to say exactly what Don means by useless, but it sounds like it's > more > than a colourspace issue, especially since in camera TIFFs are either Adobe > RGB > or sRGB as the native profile, both should be supported profiles in PSP, > though > it looks like .psd support is poor. The problem is that colorspace in a PEF is denoted by file name conventions not embedded, so the recipient has to know that an underscore preceding the name indicated that the assumed colorspace is AdobeRGB and assign it manually, a crap system really. In any case if misinterpreted it would just make the image appear a bit drab not totally screw it up. The in camera TIFF files are also uncompressed and hence should be easily read by any reasonably capable software, so I really don't know what the problem could be.
