For the most part, PhotoShop does the same thing when working with RAW images. The original DNG or PEF file remains after you create a tiff, and a simple click on "camera default" takes you right back to where you started. Not true with jpegs or tiffs of course, but since I work with RAW exclusively, I know I always have the original image data.
