Converting BMP to TIFF moves the image into an archival format with rich metadata, color profile support, and lossless compression. For BMP archives destined for print, scientific, or professional imaging workflows, TIFF is the standard target.

Lossless pixel preservation. TIFF with LZW or ZIP compression is typically 2–5× smaller than the source BMP. Alpha transfers cleanly. Metadata support is far richer than BMP's.
TIFF is supported by all professional imaging tools and print workflows. Browsers don't display it natively.
BMP is the uncompressed Windows bitmap format from 1990. Files are huge because almost nothing is compressed, but the format is trivial to decode and supported by virtually every Windows utility, embedded system, and legacy tool. Useful as an interchange format when other options fail.
TIFF is a 1986 container format used throughout professional photography, print production, and archival imaging. It supports lossless compression, multiple pages, 16-bit-per-channel color, embedded color profiles, and high bit-depth grayscale. Print shops, medical imaging, and GIS systems expect TIFF.
For professional use, yes. TIFF supports metadata, color profiles, compression, and multi-page documents that BMP doesn't. For simple Windows-native use, BMP is simpler.
Yes, if you use LZW or ZIP compression. Typically 2–5× smaller. Uncompressed TIFF is similar in size to BMP.

Yes. The converter runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Your images are never uploaded, never sent to a server, and never leave your device.
There's no hard limit, but because everything runs in your browser you're bounded by available memory. Very large images (over a few hundred megapixels) can hit browser memory limits. Process in smaller batches if you run into issues.
