Hi Bob I suppose all those sports photographers shooting digital must subscribe to "just good enough" school. <g> If I can produce a JPEG that's as good as the TIFF from a raw, where's the good enough argument? If I was shooting on a set with contrasty lighting, wide open, 400 asa and the meter was telling me to go home, I would probably shoot raw and try and "rescue" the shoot (would any photographer shoot trannies under those circumstances?). OTOH, if I was doing a fashion shoot or a portrait session in a studio under controlled lighting, raw would be a waste of processing time (then again, if I was doing a fashion shoot, I would probably have the budget to do post processing and a monkey to do it). My argument is raw mode does not automatically equal quality nor does JPEG mode "automatically" equal lesser quality. There are pros and cons for shooting in either format and "It's up to you to decide which situation requires JPEG and which Raw."
