Jpeg, Tiff or RAW?

If your camera features, and you have relevant the software, use RAW. This is the unaltered data captured by the camera.

Tiff files take up a lot of storage and are not a popular format for shooting. If your camera does not have RAW but can take Tiff then use this for important work.

Jpegs in fine quality, the lowest compression, are OK for general shots if you use the correct workflow.
