Baking out 16bit normal maps in Maya

Drgreenethumb

How can you bake out a 16 bit normal map in Maya? I know EXR can bake out 32 bits but is there a way to change the size of the bits for any other maps in Maya?

It's weird, you have to select tiff16 in the drop down menu when selecting your output path and file name. I'm pretty sure that's what it's called.
