If I render out a 32bit exr (settings - tif16) but forget to uncheck the tone map box, I get an .exr file.

My question is, what depth is this really. For example, the highlight is clamped, if using highlight compression etc.
So is this an 8bit image, sitting in a 32bit file?

Also, is it possible to output a half float file or 16bit file?

thanks very much.
