Well, I feel dumb. I was so intent on my problem with the *conversion*
program, that I hadn't tried opening the file with my photo *editing*
program. That program had no problem opening the TIFF-YC file!

Thanks guys!


Assuming you meant TIFF-YCC, here is our explanation.

I just checked - I got the camera in 1999. Maybe it's time to bite the
bullet and get something more up to date. It's like the kids say:
"that's so twentieth century!".

Only that it reduces file size, I believe, and hence bandwidth on analogue
(or digital) TV. Without component encoding there would likely have been
no colour TV as we've known it for the last 40+ years.
