Hi Aaron, First off, I understand your position, and feel that your choice of shooting JPEG is a good choice for you, in the situation that you're shooting. To answer your question: I don't think it would be very time consuming. Last night I just started to read the chapter in Bruce Fraser's

Hello Aaron, Even as a RAW shooter myself, I can fully understand why you would shoot jpg. In your situation, you can dial in the exposure you want, along with WB and be on your way. I think some venues can benefit by shooting jpg. -- Bruce Friday, April 7, 2006, 5:19:32 AM, you wrote: AR
