I only use 8 bit for simple tests, anything for production will either
be 16bit or float, that way the compositors have more to play with and
less chance of banding occuring when they really push the colors. As far
as Format, Tiff has been the default only because it supports 8,16, and
Float. However OpenEXR has my attention as a viable replacement, since
Tiff's can be finicky at times.
