[filmscanners] RE: Color spaces for different purposes

Of course, I hope you understand that my question was rhetorical.  I hope
that you were just using my rhetorical question as a vehicle for expressing
your remarks rather than taking it seriously as a literal question in need
of an answer.

One does not.

There seems to be a widespread misconception here.  While you are editing an
image, it _does not have_ a format; it isn't JPEG, or TIFF, or anything
else.  The image is stored on a file in JPEG or TIFF or whatever format you
choose, but it has no format during editing, and so whether you edit a file
opened from TIFF or JPEG makes absolutely no difference while you are
editing.  An image in an editing program is just a mass of pixels.
