[QUOTE="hark, post: 378479, member: 13196"] It is a personal preference, and one that is highly debated. RAW offers more latitude to correct the highlights and dark areas of photos. For example, if you blow out your highlights on a jpeg, quite often you lose detail that cannot be recovered. On the same RAW file, some if not all of the highlight detail can be recovered depending upon how much the highlights were blown to begin with. If you are looking to create poster size prints, RAW would be a good choice. If you are in a hurry to edit and have a lot of photos, jpeg tends to be quicker to edit since some of the sharpening, saturation, and contrast is already applied. RAW files are much larger than jpeg which you need to keep in mind if you have limited file storage. [/QUOTE]
