I figure my rendering skills are always improving, so I hang onto the RAWs. Just the other day I wanted to print a picture of my dog who had passed away. I went back to a 2004 shot I had produced with the *istD. I looked at the tiff and felt that it left something to be desired. Went back and did a new conversion. The result was a much nicer photo.
