[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 67345, member: 9521"] I always use RAW, no question about it. Not because I have any love for PP but because I detest randomly throwing away data. The conversion from RAW to JPEG results in 3/4 of the information being tossed in the trash can. I simply do not trust the algorithm to know what to toss out and what to keep. This is not meant as a flame or anything (is the term "flame" still used?) but shooting in JPEG only is akin to turning your fine instrument into the worlds most expensive point and shoot. And if it's the time issue that you don't like about PP, you can automate it to spit out a JPEG but the key to shooting in RAW is that you still have all the data preserved so if you want to go back and access it, it will still be there.
