[QUOTE="lokatz, post: 643634, member: 43924"] Thanks for your well-reflected thoughts, Stan. Not sure I agree with your RAW/JPEG conclusion when looking down the road, though. If current trends continue, the ratio between RAW and JPEG may become so low that only specialized pro software tools, at pro prices, will continue to support the ever evolving RAW formats. I agree JPEG quality is getting better all the time, and I am blown away by what phones can do these days as long as their limitations (low light, reach, ...) aren't exceeded, but it will be a sad day when photo amateurs find themselves unable to use RAW as part of their artistic workflows because mass-market support for it has dried up. This is admittedly a gloomy scenario, but I see the general trend pointing in that very direction. [/QUOTE]
