Generation loss — quality may degrade
MP4 uses lossy compression and TIFF typically uses lossy mode. Converting means decoding and re-encoding — each cycle can permanently degrade quality. Convert from the original source file whenever possible.
Some metadata may not survive
Your MP4 file may contain MP4 atoms, chapter markers metadata. TIFF has limited or no support for these metadata types. Location data (GPS), camera settings, and color profiles may be stripped during conversion.
Color depth reduction: 265-bit → 32-bit
MP4 stores up to 265 bits per channel, but TIFF supports only 32 bits. You may notice banding in smooth gradients (like sky or skin tones) where subtle color transitions are lost.
