The road to success and the road to failure are both littered with JPEG files. What a mess.

Back in the day..... Technicians graduated from RIT. Technical commercial photographers graduated from Brooks Institute. Artistic photographers graduated from Ohio University.

When you think about it, did Ansel Adams shoot in JPEG? That's not how I remember it.

Nor did he use digital cameras.

Digital cameras were still pretty much in the experimental stage when Adams died. But he was aware of them, and felt it would be an exciting development in the future of photography. If he had lived long enough to use digital cameras, I can't see how anyone would doubt he would have shot RAW.

There is no separation. Photographers are technicians, and always have been. To take an image from previsualization to final output requires technical skills.
Concise and spot-on!
Happy New Year, Gene!

He wouldn't have known what the Joint Photographic Experts Group is.

There are circumstances where using raw is the only option. I regularly take photos that simply could not be taken at all shooting JPEG. That's not the case for every photo -- many photos I take could be successfully taken shooting camera JPEGs, but I'm not going to artificially restrict myself and not take photos when shooting JPEG will not work at all. Why should I? And I take those photos all the time.

He only shot raw in the summer. It was too cold to go around shooting in the raw.

He only shot raw in the summer. It was too cold in the winter to go around shooting in the raw.
