[Leica] Process and scan to disc question

[Gerry Walden]

A number (Peter, Lluis etc) have mentioned scanning b&w as either .tiff or even .dng. I cannot see any obvious advantage to this, so could somebody pease enlighten me. I tried a couple to .dng which was a pain in Lightroom as they came out as negatives and the sliders worked the wrong way. I am currently scanning as .tiff but (to be honest) don’t really know why.
Thanks!

Gerry
