You lost me when you said "shoot in JPEG and not in RAW." Fail!

@publiux too bad you feel that way, shooting raw or jpeg does not tell you anything about a photographers skill or quality of work, raw allows you to edit and that is its primary advantage, it is better for most people but it is most definitely not always better than jpeg or take more skill to use.

@QQQQcon I didn't say you don't have good skills or can produce good quality. Quite the contrary! I think you know your stuff! But taking such a precious picture in JPEG and dumping all the RAW data for use in post production does a beautiful image a disservice. Granted, you can't change all of those presets during the shoot, but you're also not giving away your creative control to the camera. I think your video is great and you are talented. Keep up the good work!

@publiuxIt It is not disservice to me, shooting the way I choose to shoot is what makes my images what they are, I dont do post production because I choose not to and dont like doing it, it is part of my style. I understand the advantages of RAW, the point I am trying to make is that raw isn't everything and jpeg has its own advantages too (picture setting control, no tedious editing, get pics straight from cam without processing). Once again raw is best for most but not all.

@publiux ...that being said I do understand why you would feel that way but the way I see it is that there are no totally right or wrong answers, just depends on the photographer taking the picture.

It was all good until I heard you say to shoot JPEG, no no no, RAW has full flexibility, the whole file is still there, JPEG rips it apart, SHOOT RAW!!!

[EminentlyConvivial]

Why doesn't everyone stop bitching and shoot in .JPEG and .RAW like me?

[SturkChris]

I read some of the comments and it makes me sad that the RAW and JPEG argument is still going on. I do shoot in RAW because I choose to but I have many friends that only shoot in JPEG. This is a personal choice and whatever choice you make does not reflect your ability in photography. Just take pictures, stop trying to figure out what is better.. your work will speak for itself. I think @QQQQcon your pictures are amazing. You do amazing work and love the pictures you create. Keep it up.

@EminentlyConvivial absolutely, both have merits. at last a sensible you tube comment!

[publiux]

@publiux But otherwise good video.

[vwlover94]

everytime you edit the .jpeg image you losse quaility from compression and youmight increase your noise levels when you raise contrast or shadows for a little HDR effect, of course for that youll obviously use autobracketing , good video though ;)

@Shibamobobo i choose to do that editing in the camera with WB and picture control settings, i get the pictures i like that way and find it time consuming to do the same thing with a RAW. There are draw backs but editing jpegs slightly if they arent perfect wont hurt the image if necessary.
