...it's not just me then....far to easy to adjust WB wen trying to move focus points!
I shoot RAW+ my main fear in my specialist area (steam loco photography) s clipping the exhaust. On Wednesday in early morning sun (got up at 02:45, left home at 03:15 2 hour driv, hotography commenced at 06:15!)I was shooting at -1.3 EV to stop the highlights in the exhaust clipping, means the shadows are quite dark, RAW gives me room to bring up shadows and recover some higight detail if I overexpose. In softr light, JPEGS can be absolutely fine.
I enjoy the "darkroom" side of things, always did when I shot film, and do now. I routinely crop to 7/5 ratio (I sell greetings cards and 7" x5" is a popular size) so I am going to do some cropping anyway. probably develop about 10% of RAWs, and use another 5-10% of JPEGs.
As regards bracketing etc, moving trains don't really lend themselves to that. Turning on highlight protection helps a bit on the JPEG front, I also use the "natural" preset
