Should you shoot RAW or JPG? Every photographer asks this at a certain point.
The fine guys at SLR Lounge did something I love to do. the pixel peeped the hell out of a RAW and a JPG shot under the same conditions giving an in depth analysis on how jpg and raw files behave under everyday use scenarios.
The comparison takes images shot with a Canon 5D mkII and a 50mm/1.4 lens and compares various frames: both “correct” images and “badly” exposed images. looking at both the “out of camera” versions and the Lightroom “fixed” versions of the files.
If you are a photographer or a computer fanatic (or a fanatic photographer) this is a very interesting read.
