Yes, you are right. I just hope that no one else notice and that it
can be a secret between you and me... oh and Lama who pointed out my
mistake off-list ;-)

Confusing terminology. 24bit (total) is the same as 8bit (per
channel). Photoshop uses the per channel language and scan software
tends to use the total number. I suspect you are scanning at 48bit (16
per channel) I scan at 48bit in Vuescan (Device Tab, bits per pixel),
then let is do the down conversion (Files Tab, TIFF file type) before
it goes to disk, rather than waiting to do it in PS.

Good point Moose. I scan at 24-bit (about 209 Mb) and Elements
converts it to 8-bit (about 100Mb). JPEG2000 cuts that by a little
over 50%.
