[QUOTE="Rexer John, post: 126070, member: 12691"] Because RAW is what the sensor saw. JPEG is the cameras software representation of the image with Nikons processing, it makes the image look more as we would expect to see it but lots of information is thrown away. Even with neutral JPEG settings, Nikon (and other manufacturers) optimise the picture. Optimised doesn't mean the best it can do, it just means the best it can do with your settings and limited bit information. RAW always has the best image just waiting for you to set it how you like it. This takes time so there are people that don't want to shoot RAW, a correctly exposed average dynamic range JPEG is very good straight out of the camera. [/QUOTE]
