This was an interesting tidbit that I just found out.
I did the following shot today with the E-1 and the 90/2 Zuiko Macro:

The original shot was done via a .JPG format, which limits the bandwidth of the
final image, as it's already clipped to 8 bits/pixel.
Well, when I upped the saturation about 15 ticks in PS, look at the difference
between the original image and the one that's had the saturation notched up:

modified: http://skipwilliams.smugmug.com/gallery/103957/9/3671912
I was very surprised at the difference. I did the same experiment with a
16-bit file that was converted from an .ORF Olympus RAW file, and the 16-bit
file was much more tolerable of saturation changes without exibiting banding.
Notch up ONE for RAW workflow.
