> >There are an awful lot of shooters doing reportage and sport who do not >shoot RAW and shoot only JPEG. That's what I hear. If you hear differently, >I'm happy to listen and to change my understanding. > I shoot sport and only ever use RAW.Fortunately i do not have to meet tight deadlines with a couple of pictures rather the opposite having to supply a large amount of stock/action within a couple of days. Being a one man band I try to keep the image quality of the finished files as high as possible hence the security of RAW.Shooting jpeg only is akin to having no negs to work from only prints.How many worked this way when they shot film? If it is of interest to anyone a RAW Canon 1D file will produce exceptional 13 "x19" prints even when the image is a 1/3 rd upright crop from a landscape file (2464 x1648 pixel ) shot at 1600asa.Doubt i would have tried this if all I had was the jpeg file.
