JPEG Vs. RAW


Recommended Posts

Ok you more experienced shooters. Can I get some input on the two for photo sale sites, what has been your experience. And I have processed a couple of dozen raw shots (which is really a lot of fun). But in the process have totally lose a couple of files... I still can not find them in "my picture" or "photoshop organizer". So now I'm wondering if I should just stay with shooting large jpeg files. Using Photoshop 11.

Photoshop 11? Or Photoshop Elements 11? I'm not sure what photo sales sites you are referring to. There are thousands out there depending on what you are doing.

I don't use ANY of my programs photo organizing capabilities. One reason I don't is because of the issue you just mentioned. I use my own system which has been posted in the past here. Its simple, works for me and makes it easy to find what I need. Everyone is different on what works for them.

RAW will always give you the most information available from your files. Whether or not you need that information is up to you or if you are publishing up to the printer or publisher. I won't get into the debate on RAW vs JPEG. I shoot almost exclusively JPEG but I do very high volumes in my shooting and I have a nice work flow that works for JPEG and other than large posters never really have the need to use RAW. That being said when I am shooting personally something I want the most possible out of I shoot both RAW and JPEG at the same time.

To each his own, you have to decide what works for you.

Hi Dan:

I'm using Photoshop Elements 11. I've never had a work flow problem with jpeg... but raw is fun but slow for me. I was 100% sure I had the raw files saved to a "raw work file" when I made the trans to photoshop... guess not.

Are you getting this high wind and rain right now?

No not bad down here at all. Talked to my folks in Underwood this am they said weather was ugly up there. RAW can be fast if you have a good workflow for it. Experience will make things smoother and faster!

IMO, if a person is shooting mainly indoors, or outside late in the day, jpeg will work out just fine. But, if you spend all times of the day outdoors shooting wildlife, RAW can save you in less than ideal lighting conditions. There are many times that I would have ended up with blown highlights if I would have depended on just jpeg. This is why I shoot both but about 85% of the time I don't even look at the RAW versions. Another handy thing about shooting RAW is you can always shoot in AWB and change it in post, which at times can really improve the image.

    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
