As always, thanks John for the insight from your experiences.
Having just realized that my Fuji3800 can only save in .jpg, I've just
switched the output resolution to the full 3Mb, and agree that if an image
is kept at that size there shouldn't be any obvious degradation, and will
experiment with your rename suggestions.
One further question: would the file format change be immediate on d/loading
pics to my computer if I batch re-named them all to, say .tiff, .PSP or
..PSD?

Having browsed the prior posts on the subject I'm wondering if this would
be considered splitting hairs: If a previously saved .jpg is reopened and
then rotated
(I'm aware that PaintShop Pro 8 has a lossless rotation feature), re-named
or resized...would there be any noticeable degradation in the file or
image?
=======================================================
I don't think you would see any visible degradation unless
you have a very low resolution image. Why not make a copy
of the image and test it by resaving it several rimes under
different names (test 1.jpg, test 2.jpg, etc.) and compare the
results. Maybe even print the first and last and compare them.
FWIW...I never edit my original image files. All editing is done
on copies...it's good insurance.
