Having the SOOC JPEG along side the RAW does a few things for me: 1: I get a pretty good JPEG for immediate sharing. 2: Sometimes the SOOC JPEG is so good there is little need to even bother with RAW post processing. 3: These days, depending on the situation, still shooting RAW+JPEG, I will shoot a bracket of three different film emulations, and have them immediately available. 4: Finally, there have been a few examples of SOOC JPEGs which I have found difficult, if not impossible to match with an adjusted RAW file, even with all the tools I have available. And I really don't think burst speeds come into play with landscape photography... Agreed. Burst speed is the last thing I would have thought comes into play with landscape photography. However, it can come in handy for other types of photography such as wildlife, action sports, motorsport, and airshows. -- Regards, Savageduck |

He is just a capable photographer demonstrating the way he does things, and that is interesting. Well, I'm not criticizing *him*, just the choice of shooting jpeg only, even if it's not all the time. I'm saying this from personal (bad) experience. When I started out with digital, I didn't even know what RAW was, or care. So as I took an interest in learning photography, I went back over some of those old jpegs, photos I really liked, and quickly found that I couldn't do much of anything to fix the photos with problems. I learned my lesson quickly. |

Savageduck says... My normal shooting workflow is to shoot RAW+JPEG, and having a camera with dual SD slots I write RAW to slot #1 and JPEG to slot#2. My camera can do that as well, but what is the point of having the JPEGs and RAWs on different memory cards? -- Alfred Molon Olympus E-series DSLRs and micro 4/3 forum at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MyOlympus/ http://myolympus.org/ photo sharing site |

My camera can do that as well, but what is the point of having the JPEGs and RAWs on different memory cards? It is the way I choose to configure the slot set up. I have the RAW and JPEG files separated, and I can address them seperately. Also, doing things that way speeds up the write time, and clears the buffer faster. I still have the other twin slot options of duplicate/backup copy, or overflow available when, or if I need them. -- Regards, Savageduck |
