I just purchased Fred Miranda's B&W Workflow Pro (With CS) and while it seems to work quite well and its possible to get some good results I am a bit concerned by the fact that it seems to be converting my files from 16bit to 8bit.
For instance as soon as you start the action the image goes from 16bit to 8bit then back to 16bit, then when changing settings it seems to convert back and forth quite often. (I am seeing this in the title bar of the open image)
Now this seems bad to me as once converted to 8bit all the extra level data will be gone so what’s the point in converting it back to 16bit, especially as its claimed to work with 16bit files. This to me does not seem to be the case.
Does anyone else use this and have any comments; am I seeing this the wrong way?
