Why shotting Raw ? |O|

Hi Artur <br />I now shoot RAW and use the free program RAW SHOOTER. This is far better than the Digital Camera Pro bundled with my Canon 30d. <br /> <br />When I first started using RAW I had the camera set to RAW and jpeg but now I am used to it I just leave it set to RAW. <br /> <br />RAW images can look disapointing at first but you must remember the images have had no post processing applied to them by the camera and this includes shapening. <br /> <br />The only drawback really is the file sizes are much bigger and for sports you won&acute;t get nearly so many shots off before you get the dreaded buffer full message. <br /> <br />

I also shoot in raw Brett, and then develop the images either in Photoshop Lightroom or Nikon Capture NX. Its the &quot;digital negative&quot; and I do not mind to have big files, as those raw files are essencial to the postprocessment work. :Happy |O|

I do not know how Raw Shooter essentials works on the raw files - if in a non destructive way, as Lightroom and Capture NX - I&acute;ve tried most of them - even Bibble Pro and Lighzone - but I&acute;ll stick to Lightroom - with which I work 85 to 95% of the time - and Capture NX. |O|
