Back to raw?

Well, I'm going to get all kinds of "I told you so's" for this post but I've changed and am going to shoot raw on all paying jobs. My wife and I shot a wedding last week and the mixed lighting was awful in my jpeg tests so I changed our cameras to raw and that saved me. So all my weddings and portraits are going to be in raw.....

Wise move in my book.

I did the same thing awhile back. Right after I got CS3 and found out I could open JPG's as RAW's in ACR. I gave it a solid month, but finally had to admit that the jpg's just did not hold the data the RAW's do. I went back and will never fall for it again.

I know the feeling. I was a very strong advocater for jpeg in the raw editor which does work but in a limited way. The images from the wedding have much smoother skin tones, etc in the raw images. Yep, I can say right along with you that I won't fall for that again. It is raw for me.
