[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 555112, member: 3903"] The Raw file is the one with the most information. If ever your highlights were burnt or your shadows underexposed, the raw conversion software will allow you to maybe recover and save the image. The jpeg you are now using is simply the raw file processed by your camera to your preference (sharpness, contrast, saturation) or picture style you've selected. What I suggest you do is shoot both. Whenever you are happy with the jpeg file, use it and when the difficult time comes you can use the raw. But, since you are using lightroom to process your images, you'd as well should get the version that will convert your raw files and start the process of learning the post processing powers of LR. Hope this helps. Enjoy your Nikon. [/QUOTE]
