After taking pictures in RAW, then converting them so Photoshop CS2
can read them using Adobe DNG converter, & after adjusting them in
CS2, what is the best format to save them in ie JPEG, TIFF, PSD etc.
Thanxs in advance.

RAW/DNG files contain the most info. Otherwise, TIFF is the next best bet.

FWIW - I always archive the original raw file. I figure I can get what I
need from it. Beyond that, I 'save' files in whatever format I need for
how I'm using them - most often jpeg.
As long as you have any idea of editing them, save them in the native
format of your image editor, i.e, PSD for photoshop, etc. If you are
absolutely sure you will do no more editing, you can save them in jpeg
with a low compression setting and it can save you a bit of hard drive
space, or tiff if you have a big drive.
"Best" is tif or psd.
Keep the dng files.
I make jpegs at 11/12 compression because that's "good enough" and
easily compatible with any program.
