JPEG's mostly, but a couple RAW's (I've deleted them though). You sure
there's no NR on RAW? I know Sony at least does NR on RAW's, and Canon
does some on-chip NR that affects both formats.

The E-3 did not impress me at all. Poor handling and IQ appeared equal
to the last-generation 10MP bodies based on the shots I've seen.
