[QUOTE="john*thomas, post: 371168, member: 16937"] I shoot in RAW and edit because of the approach I take to my hobby. For me it is a hobby and more of capturing something I find is cool or interesting at the moment to save for later than getting the perfect picture. I like to go, shoot and move on. RAW does give me the ability to make the picture a little better when I don't get it just right initially after I get home and sit down. Yes sometimes I could have a better picture if I took the time but then I would miss seeing things. Photography gives me the excuse to get out and walk. Sometimes walk and walk and walk. Luckily the wife often times likes to walk with me. Not stand around while I get the perfect picture. As has already been noted, there is no perfect or correct answer here. My approach would never work for a professional or one who has the desire in their hobby to gets things as correct as absolutely possible (there is certainly nothing wrong in that). It works for me.
