from what I understand, adjusting in 16 bit is like adjusting in RAW vs. jpeg – you have more colors you’re working with. Photo printers only print in 8 bit, though. So, like he does, do all your adjusting in 16 bit if you can so that you can work with as much color depth as possible, and only then do you convert to 8 bit for printing.

Why would you even convert to 8 bit?
Save file size?
Doesn’t converting to a smart object retain large file size?

Just wondering, I’m a noob in this arena.
