I’m currently editing my D70’s NEFs in Photoshop CS2 (including downsizing & adding canvas), saving as 16 Bit TIFs and printing on my dye sub printer. My last step before saving is sharpening. I’m thinking that since my dye-sub printer only prints in 8 Bits, that I might as well save the TIFs first as 8 Bit files since it will have absolutely no effect on quality (and save space which really isn’t an issue for me). Does my argument make sense? If it does, at what point should I convert to 8 Bit (immediately upon opening NEF, before resizing, after sharpening??? It would seem that after sharpening would make sense since 16 Bit TIFs are converted to 8 Bit during printing anyway, right? Thanks for suggestions.
