I can't attach a file as they are too big but here is a Dropbox link
I've done some testing with that file- Develop RAW file to 16bit .tif in Capture One - 137.38MB Save as jpg (highest quality) in PS - 18.93MB Save as jpg (highest quality) in AF - 28.7MB An increase in jpg size of 50% in AF over PS. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Develop RAW file to 16bit .tif in Capture One - 137.38MB One small clone edit and resave as .tif in PS - 137.35MB Then save as jpg - 18.93MB One small clone edit and resave as .tif in AF - 160.6MB Then save as jpg - 28.7MB Here, in AF the tif increases by 15-20% but, on saving that edited tif as a jpg, the extra MBs are lost. (But the AF jpg is still 50% larger than the PS one)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, is AF adding extra info to a simple tif file with no layers? If so, can I delete it?
With jpgs, is PS compression higher in PS than AF at 12/100%?
