I keep them as 16-bit PSD files, and they look great on my screen. When I 
uploaded to the Gallery, I let the Gallery software do all of the 
conversions, and I shouldn't have. I think I can find time to do the 
conversions by hand, so you can see what I see.


> Finally:  What camera and lens?  Settings? Film?  Lighting?

Click on the Camera icon to see the Exif. It's a Canon DSLR, 85/1.2L mark II 
lens set at f/4. Four Novatron strobes, two with diffusers, one with an 
umbrella, and overhead a hair light with a snoot.
