>Regarding RAW format is it a Plus or just an opsolite waste of digital space?
Well lett me tell you from my personal experience. I ALWAYS shoot RAW plus JPEG, ALWAYS!!!
Why? you might ask - the anwser is simple.
JPEG's I use just to see if the composition is right, the light is corect overexposed/underexposed areas and other minute changes in the photo.
RAW's I use EVERY time I need to work on a serious postproduction on the photo like use for brosures, web design, online galery, printed materials and other.
I even shoot RAW for scenes from my personal life, You never know when you might end up using that digital negative. :) RAW is practicly that a digital negative, the main diference is that every color on the sensor is captured in it's layer (if you use the... [ Read more... ]

Thanks again!

Thank you all for your comments and support, as for Littlemacproductions thank you for your question, as I mentioned before most of the time i use RAW + JPEG mainly to check if the composition is right, the light is correct overexposed/underexposed areas and other minute changes in the photo.
This depends on whether you are shooting outdoors or in a studio, if you shoot outdoors and your work depends on a fast workflow process (Sports, Fashion, On Site shoot for a client) you need to check fast whether you got it right. Plus the added value if something is not quite right you got both formats with you, if you need to share your photos fast with your client, your model or someone else and working on a tight time frame you give them the JPEG's and use the RAW's latter on in the post-production (development) process.
If you shoot in the studio you are probably already using some system for fast transfer (wired or wireless) your shots to the PC or MAC directly to a software that can process...(More)
