Vroger,

Can your software convert a TIFF into a "raw" type file such as NEF, DNG, 
etc.? If so, you should be able to manipulate the image to
meet your needs.

Hi All:
Well, I've finally started shooting RAW and I love it. I did find,
however, when I was shooting overseas with my FZ20 which has a 2.8
constant aperture lens throughout the"superzoom" range, the 2.8
aperture just wasn't enough. The camera does not have RAW,
regrettably, and I find I cannot manipulate exposure the way I can in
RAW. The camera does have TIFF,however, and I wonder if I could do any
more with TIFF as regards underexposure than I can with JPEG. In other
words, my impression is that TIFF was rather like JPEG when it comes
to manipulation. Am I right or is there more leeway?- Bests vroger
