RAW or JPG - what's your choice

[scotto]

Nice and easy little poll.

Do you shoot RAW, JPG or RAW+JPG.

[_Belial]

I always shoot in both, memory cards are cheap enough these days to do both, and if a shot comes out nicely without any need for processing then i have a ready made JPG.

[cosmicma]

i allways shoot raw and convert to tif, allways have

[slartibartfast]

RAW for me, although the 10D automatically embeds a jpg into the file anyway but I've only ever extracted it about twice.

[big-paul]

RAW for me, what are the write time overheads for writing RAW + JPEG? It's not something I've ever played with.

.jpg but im a complete camera rookie!

[tiggerbiker]

i always use RAW, its easier to manipulate on the pc + i have a handfull of 2gb CF cards and a 20GB flashtrax so storage isnt an issue.

(BTW i use a fuji S2pro 12.1mp DSLR)

I actually clicked JPEG. I do most in JPEG at the mo, but that's only coz I'm doing outdoor football shots and there are obviously times when I need to blast off a few shots in quick succession. Then the only post editing is adjusting levels and turn up the brightness 1 step (if it needs it).

Other stuff (portraits, etc) in RAW.

r+j. come back, review the jpegs. Any shots that are wirth the effort I work on the raw verson, otherwise delete the raw.

[eolair]

also raw allows you to save some pics if you mess up the exposure or colour balance- pretty tough to do with only JPG.

[Baron Kalan]

RAW everytime

[PIFCO]

JPG for me

[Deadly]

Jpg for me at the moment. I could take raw's if i wanted, but i dont have any raw software, i guess i should really look into getting some!

[wseed]

I only bother with raw if I'm shooting in constant lighting conditions so I can batch all the processing. I see little/no point in wasting all the time for mixed environments.

Hello i have a canon eos 10d so i get to have both but with my fuji s5000 i always use raw.

[XioD]

I dont use any on them

[Norma Snackers]

Mainly jpg for me, as I have to reduce most images for web sites. I use raw occasionally when I'm working on advertising pics.

[roton]

Always jpg, might have to try raw though since recently getting a dslr. Tbh i've always found it quite easy to adjust brightness, colour balance etc. on jpgs.

[Freelander]

Raw for me, you can get a free editor download from Digital Photo...

[felchi80]

raw, because a few pixel on my old canon S30 sensor decided to get stuck. So if i shoot jpeg, one hot pixel becomes like 4, 5 distorted pixels due to the compression....
It's not like i have a 10mega camera so every pixel counts.... hehe
