[QUOTE="Eduard, post: 59865, member: 986"] Think of the difference between JPG and RAW/NEF as the difference between a print and a negative. Once you print, you have limited options to change the image. That is JPG. The biggest issue with editing a JPG is that you lose detail due to the way the files are compressed and stored EVERY time you edit it! You don't with a RAW file. A JPG is a processed and compressed version of the RAW file created within your camera - and then the RAW information is discarded. The NEF file is (usually) what is captured by the sensor without any processing which is where the term RAW originates. [/QUOTE]
