[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 286127, member: 13090"] This is why I shoot RAW + JPG. I don't extensively post process every single shot I take, nor would I want too. Most of my shots look fine in JPG (after some adjustments to the in-camera menus for processing them). Every once in a while, though, I really nail a particular shot; one that *really* excites me. When that happens, I want the option of being able to work with that particular shot, or shots, and have the full flexibility working with a RAW file offers. The amount of adjustment a JPG allows for simply can't be compared to what you can do with a RAW file; there is, quite simply, no comparison. The other thing this option provides for is the fact that sometimes a mediocre shot has an outstanding shot "hiding" within it. The addition of a Polarizing or Detail Enhancement filter in Nik Tools is sometimes all that's required to give an otherwise boring shot some significant Wow Factor.
