I'm sure that in 99% of cases the in-camera conversion would be better than I
could ever manage. (I'm no Photoshop wiz.) However, I'd like the option to
keep all 12 bits - just in case!
I might be wrong on this but, as far as I know, RAW camera files are the only
way of keeping all the bits since both Jpeg and Tiff ouput from compact
digicams is only 8 bit.
