However, unless you have some super monitor, 16 bit won't look different to 8 bit, surely. OK very high end monitors, will show them with smoother tones due to choosing those 8 bits from a bigger look up table. That's not to denigrate the advantages of 16 bit for tonal manipulation. Also of course the jpgs are 8 bit. Or did you know all of that and I was just being too earnest and literal?

They kind of jump right at you when you blow them up. amazingly M a r k R a b i n e r New York, NY 40?47'59.79"N 73?57'32.37"W markrabiner.com _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
