At our computer club I have been teaching (free) PSE from version 4 through 10 and basic DSLR and P&S. Generally they are the same attendees for both classes.I usually tell them not to go in the attitude I will photoshop it later but todo it right the first time in the camera.We then go into the "teeter totter" the relationship of aperture and shutter speeds and the rest.Later when some come to the Elements class we do RAW but explain RAW is like the negative and that all you see is the jpeg thumbnail. If you do jpegs it the highest that you want to use and just like the others said save as and if you are doing layers save the layered one and then save as new or copy jpeg.We had a member of our club buy a new camera for a once in a lifetime trip to South East Asia but she set up her camera to a mid level jpeg. Card are cheap relative to what you spent on camera and lenses so don't short change yourself. Now RAW saved me on sunday as I was shooting a Pine Wood Derby during one part of event I laid my camera down to change lenses but inadvertently my external flash came loose. Although I just got the D7000 I am still using my other branded flash in manual mode. It took one okay then the next three I did not notice that the flash did not fire. Reseated the flash for the rest of the race. When I got home to process the files I saw the three I was able to pull them out; now I am shooting with the flash f/6.3 at 1/100 sec so you know a gym is not bright even though at ISO 400. With the RAW I was able to salvage it.If you come from film and slides this is my analogy a jpeg is like a slide (positive negative) and you do not have a lot of latitude over or under exposure but a negative like RAW you have more latitude it getting it.Now the newer versions of Elements and Photoshop will let you open a jpeg in the RAW converter and will give you some more tools to work with.Just have fun.My 2¢ Lou Cioccio</p><p></p><p>Here are 3 screen captures one is in bridge, and two in camera raw.</p></blockquote><p></p>
