RAW to TIFF is one of the most natural conversions in professional photography, since TIFF has long been the established standard in print, prepress, and archival workflows, and it supports the same kind of high bit depth and lossless storage that makes RAW valuable in the first place. Unlike converting to JPG, going to TIFF means you don't lose any image data to lossy compression once the RAW file has been demosaiced.
This makes RAW to TIFF a common choice for photographers delivering files to print shops, retouchers, or clients who specifically need a high-quality, editable master file rather than a final, compressed web-ready export.

Why do photographers often deliver TIFF instead of JPG to print shops?
TIFF avoids the lossy compression JPG applies, preserving maximum image detail and color depth, which matters for high-quality print output where every bit of detail counts.
Will my TIFF file be larger than a JPG export?
Yes, typically significantly larger, since TIFF's lossless storage doesn't compress the image data the way JPG's lossy compression does.
Can I batch-convert an entire photo shoot to TIFF at once?
Yes, Batch Mode with recursive folder scanning handles entire shoots, including nested sub-folders, in a single run.
