Use uncompressed TIFs to speed iPhoto
Authored by: dave1212 on May 16, '03 12:31:45AM
* Converting JPEG files to uncompressed TIFFs requires ten times the disk space and does not make the quality any better.

I don't believe that was the plan. To capture the pictures from your camera in RAW would be best, and to then save to uncompressed TIFF. But you're right, JPEG->TIFF does nothing but chew up space.

* If you really cared about image quality, you'd be working on your TIFF files in PhotoShop instead of iPhoto anyway!

Not if you don't have the money and don't want to pirate.

As well, iPhoto is an Image Cataloging Application, Photoshop (even with the File Browser) is not.
