[QUOTE="Vaughany, post: 97764, member: 11531"] Hi there, I'm new to this photography malarkey and have recently learnt the joy of shooting RAW over JPEG. After an incident of taking what I thought would have been a great image ruined by slight overexposure I switched to RAW and have been really happy ever since. I did an article on my blog on why I prefer it ([url=http://lifeinzoom.wordpress.com/2012/11/17/i-shoot-raw/]I Shoot RAW « Life In Zoom[/url] ). For the best example drop straight to the bottom. I took this shot in the city and it was badly underexposed. Chucked it in ViewNX2 (which you should have courtesy of Nikon) and fixed it, much better. For this reason I think I will always shoot in RAW from now on, if like someone above said they are taking a lot of photos then put it in JPEG + RAW, leave the ones that are fine and you can fix the other ones - delete the rest of the RAW files.
