You will find some photographers on this site, believe that modern JPEGS are just as good as RAW. (which they aren't). I realize this will probably inflame some opinions, but it is what it is.

You'll also find that some on this site believe that RAW and PS are so you can "fix" things, with the same inflammation as your statement induces.

Some people also think the world is flat, that astronauts never landed on the moon, and that dinosaurs and humans existed at the same time. Many people adhere to belief systems which prevent them from accepting conflicting ideas regardless of any evidence.

Sometimes editing JPGs leaves you open to the "XEROX" effect. Open edit close- you now have a copy with a little mpre loss. Do it again- a little more loss. Every so often someone tries this out- open edit close the same file 100 times. Looks like crapola.
Some of us know our limitations. The shot I took is not the shot I wanted. RAW lets me adjust it easier and more precisely. I was in Tahoe, and shot the lake at noon30 'cause that's when I had the time. I made it a sunset- and moved that sun and cloud all over the place until I was happy.

One doesn't need to edit for the degradation to occur. If one opens a .jpg file and just saves it, there will be changes done to it.

I shoot RAW + jpeg, and not by any means an expert in editing.
The jpegs can be opened, and edited, in any simple photo editor, I'm starting to have some success with RAW editors. I generally export my finished RAW edits, as Tiff. Tiff is easier to resize, if needed.
I actually just wanted to thank the photographers for there examples on this post, they are quite inspiring.
