[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 177232, member: 12496"] Right, and that JPG copy (of Raw) is expendable. When any change is needed, just discard the JPG, change the edit on the Raw original, and make a new JPG copy. Only two sets of JPG artifacts then, from the camera, and this last new one. Raw editor can do this for JPG too (at least Adobe ACR that I use can). ACR can simply open JPG from a compact camera, and fix red eye, crop to 6x4 shape, fix white balance, boost exposure, whatever, and then output new JPG. Only 8 bits and less range possible, but this is lossless editing then. It always preserves the original unmodified JPG (with no additional JPG artifacts), and saves the list of edit changes (like Raw) in the file somewhere, and applies those changes (or edited changes) to the Original JPG file at any next time. This does not make a continued string of additional JPG artifacts. Other image programs (viewing, printing, etc) do not understand that method, and so they can only still show the original JPG version next time. So ACR has to make a new JPG for other programs to use, like it makes a JPG for other programs to use the Raw files. But it is lossless editing, even for JPG, pretty cool. [/QUOTE]
