I shoot RAW exclusively for two reasons: first, I want the digital equivalent of the "original negative" to go back to as my skills improve and I find new ways to process the images, and second, because RAW technology is constantly improving and who knows what we'll be able to pull out of a file in the future? (And I save files in DNG)
It is a large pain in the backside some days, but worth it and, once you get used to the workflow, is much smoother and almost as fast with the added benefit of no chance of degrading an image past the point of recovery.
MY question is, when are we going to get a Pentaxian to step up to the plate and start a Podcast dedicated to OUR favorite cameras and their usage?
