I recall reading in here that converting K10D RAW images to jpgs resulted in a better image than straight jpgs. But not having decent software (apart from what came with the camera and Irfanview), I saw little reason to test this information. I had little to do today, so I spent 15 minutes or so testing this.

I was astonished by the results. Guess you can easily pick which is which, even with my rudimentary software (depite the minor color difference - although the 1st shot [the converted RAW to jgp] is truer).

The lens was a Sigma 70-300mm. The shot was taken at the Taj Mahal. I like the bird in the top centre, and the Muslim praying while the man, oblivious to him, sweeps.
