A TIFF file that I convert with a RAW editor cannot be tweaked beyond a certain point anymore. I can never recover as much of the highlights as I can from the RAW file with Photomatix.
So it does appear to get clipped beyond some point.
Photoshop and TIFF formats are lossless, but are very space intensive ways to store images. They also don't correctly represent vendor specific information. Then there are Raw files.

For the ultimate in flexibility, image files can be recorded in TIFF, JPEG, or NEF (Nikon's proprietary RAW format), in either 12-bit or 14-bit compressed or uncompressed formats. Low noise capture is possible at ISO settings as high as 6400.
For those special images you want to print and display, the preferred file format is TIFF. By saving a completed image that possibly started out as a JPEG as a TIFF, you are using a lossless file capable of producing high-quality enlargements.
