I shoot almost entirely RAW with my 20D. The larger file size doesn't bother me, and I like having as many post-processing options as possible. Occasionally I shoot JPEG if it is going to be snapshots that are going straight to the web or email. Most of my raw work starts RAW, gets saved in .psd files.

I'm using CS2 and it makes excellent guesses at the right settings for me in the browser application. Occasionally I'll make small changes to exposure, brightness and shadows so shooting raw just keeps my options open. I too shoot with a 1DMKII and shooting weddings sometimes means shooting in difficult light and bright white dresses and dark suit issues. Everyone now and then after a portrait shoot I'll tweak the settings pretty radically including adding vignetting so raw is a godsend to me - probably just because I know how to do it that way. For a typical wedding I'll shoot over 1,000 images and I can process and go through in about 1 hour. In the new browser program I can give them star ratings as well which means I don't need to resave or change their names. I don't bother going to jpeg at all until I want to give my clients the images. ************* * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
