Yes, it will save as jpeg (three quality levels), tiff, or RAW. I've been saving as raw, using the Pentax software to convert to tiff without any tweaks. Then I do the final in PhotoShop 6. I'm going to upgrde to CS when I can, because it has a great RAW converter that allows resizing at the RAW stage and features a lot of other nice tools. But you can get by without it. I have the CS upgrade, but I need a clean copy of PS7. My PS6 is a site license version, which is not upgradeable. Paul
