Transparent Photographic tiff

My goal is to have a transparent photographic tiff that will allow me to change the image to any colour in Illustrator.

Can anyone help?

...I hope this makes sense.

Here is a example of what I am talking about.

Reading your question - the only response I can think of is 'Why Illustrator?'.

Keep the tiff in Photoshop and just adjust the colour there?

there are plenty of times it's just easier to assign a color in indesign/illustrator. i have a large collection of scanned architect sketches that i do exactly that with. and i only have to link to the original and not save multiple versions in multiple colors.

Just save it in Photoshop as a grayscale tiff, Place it into Illustrator and assign it a color.

If you're using Illustrator for your layouts please stop. Go to InDesign. ID does this color replacement thing very easily. ID also handles text much more efficiently than AI does. Save AI for your vector artwork.
