RAW vs JPEG

Everyone knows shoot RAW is better than shoot JPEG, but by how much the improvement is? some may wonder. 

for me i would have to admit i am a little retarded, it took me 2 years before seriously give it a try shooting RAW. ...Yes I am starting and going to shoot RAW a long as the camera is capable.

You can read all about it on the web, but you haveto try it yourself to believe it and realize the advantages of shooting RAW. Post processing in RAW is also way better. You always read it on the web that you can recover photo quality (for instance over/under exposure)....conveniently CS3 has recover slider - just move your mouse vigorously (hehehe) and you'll definitely see the difference.

OK picture speaks for itself. I am sure attached photo you can easily tell which is RAW and which is JPEG...if you can't don't doubt yourself.... it's just too much resizing for blogging... but seriously there is a difference. And don't worry about the wording if its too small, the intention is have you to look at the Moon not the setting and date. in short RAW picture is all most making the moon on my monitor look 3D, and JPEG is like the opposite of RAW. ahhahahah

what are you waiting for go get yourself a 8Gb storage card and start click click in RAW. 
YoU WilL LovE It.
