The photo formats that use lesser memory are .jpg (.jpeg) and .png.

Although there are finate differences in these two formats, they both provide fair compression quality. .jpg is often used for storing of photos and digital Photography, however, they do not support transparency such as .png and .gif which are often used for graphics and web design. All these formats compress the image (using different techniques) reducing size but also reducing quality. File format such as TTIF are uncompressed of have minimal compression therefor offering full quality (loss less, no quality lost in compression), however, they aren't practical for any purpose. A 4 MB .jpg would adverage about 160 MB as a .ttif.

A good rule to remember is that compressed images (jpg and png) loose quality every time you re compress (or save) them. So edit photos as ttif or photoshop formats, then save as .jpg or .png. There are other file types out there but these are the primary two.
