With the people I meet, who are mostly industrial and commercial shooters, a small majority shoot RAW, in whatever manufactures format that is. I also follow the D1scussion list and from that I get the feeling that a good number shoot RAW. Although again I suppose this is a self selecting sample. Also as Rob Galbraith did the research on conversion speeds, he must have felt that it was justified by the number of users.
