[QUOTE="Steve in Oz, post: 682844, member: 41182"] I've had a D7200 for about three years, totally love it. I've also done my fair share of RAW post-production. Over the past few months though, I've been looking more closely at the the OOC JPG images coming out of the camera (mainly for clients who need images turned around in a hurry) - and I never realised how good they are. I think some of us are too quick to damn the ever-present and ubiquitous JPG. I'm convinced now it's 'horses for courses'. I shoot both RAW and JPG so I have access to either type of file. I use settings I got from this forum: Vivid, Sharpening 7, Clarity 2, Contrast 1, Brightness .25, Saturation .75, Hue 0.0. Anyone else with suggestions for getting good JPGs I'd be happy to hear from. And before anyone tells me I should be shooting RAW - I do - when time permits! But when a client brings a laptop and a thumb drive to the location and asks for images for his FB page within half an hour... [/QUOTE]
