#5136 Advantages to shooting raw?

Posted by Thumper on 21 October 2013 - 09:29 AM

I'm going to start shooting in RAW without the extra JPEG copy. My memory cards are not that big.

I can get around 1.5K on my 32GB CF cards shooting just RAW.   I carry 5 of them in my bag.   That is a LOT of exposures, even on just one card.

Great architectural image and a great night shot as well!


I agree completely.

Probably my Nikon 10-24mm f3.5-4.5 DX which is hardly ever off one of my two bodies. When I bought it, I wasn't sure I'd done the right thing but the amount of shots taken with it have justified its existence in my camera bag since then!

That is an awesome lens.

#3783 School Me...

Thank you Thumper. That sounds like a good game plan - coursework and membership in a photography club. I think that people who are creative tend to want to share the experience with others.


 

That is exactly the experience that I had.

#3776 School Me...

I got my start in classes at a local community college (back when it was film photography), which got me in with a local photography club.     The nice thing about phtotgraphy clubs is the range of experience and skill.   The club that I was involved in had members that were incredibly helpful, and they really enjoyed helping new photographers learn.  It promotes and perpetuates the art.
