To my knowledge CCDSoft is a bit more particular than PhotoShop which is able to do 8 and 16 in both... from what I can tell, CCDSoft will only save:

8 bit .BMP
8 bit .TIF
48 bit .TIF

However, my version of photoshop (not sure about newer ones) cannot load 48 bit .TIF. So I have to choose 8 bit TIF. If CCDSoft would save as 16 bit .TIF that would be really nice. It's almost like they need a new version to add support for more file types in CCDSoft.

Of course in photoshop TIF can be 8 or 16, BMP can be 8 or 24.. not sure about 16?..

Generally I avoid BMP also, but have been resorting to using it with some of this stuff switching between RegStax, CCDSoft and PhotoShop.

Confusing stuff.
