My take on the RAW vs JPEG discussion.
1. All sensors record RAW data in the camera
2. If camera is set to RAW for record, then nothing more is done to the 'captured image' until someone processing in post using a wide selection of processing options.
3. If camera is set to JPEG capture, the particular camera manufacturer processes the 'captured image' very quickly before the photographer sees it in the camera's play back screen. Hence the image is processes. In addition there are setting options in the camera that can be selected by the photographer that affect the jpeg completed image.

One pro (Randall Hodges)that I took a class from shoots Canon and jpeg only and has numerous settings he teaches to mimic various old film styles. He states that all of the images he prints and sells are 'straight out of the camera (SOOC).'

One easy test anyone can do is to set their camera to record both RAW and jpeg images. Shoot a variety of images and download them to your computer. Then compare the same image in both formats side by side. The RAW image will most likely not look as good as the jpeg image initially. Then process the RAW image and compare them again. I think this will help clarify the RAW v jpeg question for many photographers.

Yeah, smart folk don't do raw.

While RAW is not an acronym, it is so often used when also considering e.g., JPG or TIFF that it just fits better in a statement or passage.


Yes, so often misused.

Don't you ever get tired of not saying anything?


No. I know you look forward to reading it.

Yet another unsupported assertion. At long last, have you nothing of substance to say?


You're hiding your ineptitude behind post processing.

the image in the camera is not complete until you process it not possible to get perfect shot in camera even with studio lighting post processing was considered normal when film is all we had. Digital just sped the process up and eliminated chemicals and darkrooms. Your loss if you choose not to finish you photograph properly

Don't let yourself be fooled.

There appear to be a number of concepts on this thread that are too difficult for you such as Bob’s point about the Kodachrome process vs the E6 Ektachrome process - both are slide films that are typically used SOOC with a very little latitude for under/over exposure compared to color print films, but Ektachromes can be pushed and developed with simple home equipment.


Never asked about Ektachrome.

Ah, love your approach of directing me to go find evidence to support your assertions: a classic technique of trolls, the uninformed, and the intellectually lazy.

Does there ever come a point in your communications where you actually read the information posted by others and then respond with actual, thoughtful, considered information of your own? Is your intent to provide trite, vapid comments or, perhaps, is it just your nature?


You're scared to admit the truth.

The way it was explained to me from Nat Geo Photographer, when you shot in RAW you are getting the full picture, just as the eye has seen it. In JPEG. the camera does some of the processing and what you get is what you get. With a RAW photo and have the proper Programs. Lightroom/Photoshop. you can do a lot more with the RAW image.


You don't really need it though. Don't let them fool you.

Yes they were! I spent nearly all of the first 40 years of my photographic journey shooting exclusively Kodachrome because it came closest to reproducing reality (imho). I got a slide scanner in 2003 and proceeded to digitize about 10,000 of them so that now I can post process the ones I want to tweak! Isn't technology wonderful?


Kodachromes saved you SOOC.

You say "majority" but I see no support for that opinion. Tag, you're it.


Go look in the Gallery for evidence of those who should not be post processing.

Apparently you aren’t familiar with the K14 process for developing Kodachrome or you would understand why Bob and other amateurs haven’t developed Kodachrome in a home darkroom.


The point was that Kodachromes were SOOC, but you missed that. Sorry it was too hard a concept for you.
