thats what i have been hoping for all along, but just for my own interest do you know any sources that explicetly state that it does affect the base RAW image?

open up lightroom (or whatever) and pick an image, crank the contrast all the way to one side and watch the histogram.
in an article i posted not to long ago here from one of the digitialphotopro magize writers they made a point that the in camera histogram has a tendency to misinterpret the actual data contained in the RAW file, particulary with respect to blown out highlights.
the camera says you have blowout but in reality you dont (assuming you fix this in a 3rd party program)

i am to understand that none of the in camera settings designed to play around with colour, sharpness, contrast, noise control, hue, etc etc etc have an impact on the information contained in the RAW file, only on the derivative JPEG.
having said that, ALL of those settings do have a direct impact on the HISTOGRAM that is derived in camera for review purposes. (since the histogram works off the JPEG)
correct?
