What format to save processed images in?

Guys, I’ve been processing a whole bunch of photos recently (have a batch of 300) and have a question regarding what format to save my final processed images in.

I’m starting with fairly decent jpg images (~4500x2800, 5-6Mb in size), then after a little processing in photoshop I’m saving them in psd format where they can range from 16-90Mb each.

Now I don’t really need to keep the psds for details of changes, layers etc because if I ever needed to edit them again I can happily re-create from the original jpgs.

What I’m looking for is a final format to save them in which will retain quality without requiring extreme amounts of disk storage, any suggestions?

Thanks

If you have started out with a jpeg then you wont gain any quality saving them uncompressed. So I would save them to the same jpeg quality, or alternatively shoot in RAW.

Okay just wasn't sure if re-saving them again in jpeg would reduce the quality further.

Also, when saving as jpeg what settings/compression ratios do you all use?

Thanks.
