Until I get my digital camera, I'm using film. I've read on the "Digital Diver" Forums that you should save pics as TIFF, because if you save as JPEGS, each time you open to edit, you will lose something from the pic. That's what I understood...if I'm wrong, please correct me.
So...I scanned a pic and saved in TIFF format. When I opened in my photo program and saved, the quality of the pic sucked. When I scanned and saved pic as jpeg, opened in my photo program and saved, quality was much, much better.
My question would be, the best route for me to take, while still using film, and scanning, the saving format to use, be it tiff or jpeg or something else.
Also, why my pics quality was so poor as a tiff file?
Thanks in advance.
