Shoot in JPEG, you don't need RAW for an event like this. I was shooting my friends family and i did the whole shoot in JPEG. They loved the results. They wouldn't know RAW from JPEG in a million years.
Yes, the SAME as MOST people !

have been asked by a friend to shoot a family get together. My friend is supplying a SD card to turn back over to him. I know he does not have a computer program to deal with canon raw or any other photo processing program other then what comes in his computer. Should I shoot in JPEG so he can view photos?
Shoot in JPEG, perfect images for that specific use.

If your camera uses 2 sd cards, shoot one in raw and one in jpeg. Give him the jpeg and if he likes some images, process them with your raw files.

This is Ken Rockwell's take on Raw and jpeg. Some people find him opinionated I find him honest.
His take after 30 years of shooting and working with tech people before is a jpg is the same as raw.
Raw has more flexibility in post. I often shoot in both and hardly every use the raw. i can tweak
in photoshop. That said I realize some are artists with nature and stills an raw has options.
This is a must read.

I don't think he is honest. Although a lot of the things he said is true but he wanted you to understand in a different way altogether. So Ken isn't wrong but he is deceiving.

I tend to strongly agree with you...he is spinning it in many respects in my opinion...

I have been "hired (for free) as the Photographer for the events of friends and relative. Sometimes, I just post on Shutterfly for viewing, occasionally I have created a photo album or simply emailed some photos. I always shoot RAW and process - not necessary, but it's my workflow. When I stop enjoying it, I'll change the workflow or quit. I do not envision quitting, soon!

As would I. You needn’t spend a lot of time. Give him the straight JPEGs that look good. Process some of the RAW images to cover the JPEGs that don’t hit the mark. Convert a few RAW images to B&W etc.
Your effort may not be recognized or understood but it’s what we do as artists.

He has a large following but nine months ago I asked him a question regarding D500 and long legs for birding. He told me to sell off my Nikon and go Canon. Kind of turned me off seeing he was pushing Nikon for the most part. I still visit his website monthly though.

Useful, thoughtful opinion.
I might add that if the client lost the photos in the JPEG format, then he could ask the photographer for duplicates. So the photographer should keep a copy of both file formats as insurance.

And I do visit his website because he is about the only one that post where the camera was made. The information is irrelevant to most but I want to know.
