[QUOTE="Geoffc, post: 53901, member: 8705"] A few points. With regards to having loads of pics to process I have recently tried limiting myself to two virtual rolls of film per day (72 pics) on my D300s. It takes too long to review 400 pics and snapping like that produces lots of poor quality rubbish, at least for me. I got convinced about Raw when it gave my old D70 an extra couple of years life because of the better quality however I do shoot jpg when I intend to post without processing. Why not shoot both at the same time and just use the raw versions where you want to process. At least you always have the option of either and the quality is better. If you say jpg "will do" you may as well say cheap lenses will do. I'm not trying to be contentious but it is surely best to have the highest quality without extra cost. I use a mix of DXO and PSE, plus view nx to quickly view and delete my raw files. I think dxo is in a similar place (function) to Lightroom but I can't compare them. I revert to PSE if I want to edit beyond cropping and tweaking light/colour. [/QUOTE]
