Let's take a look at RAW qualityWell since the advent of the Digital SLR cameras a new file format came, RAW! what is it exactly? Well RAW is a file that has little data processing from the Imaging sensor (CCD, CMOS, NMOS,etc) of your digital camera, the name RAW implies those files aren't processed yet, So What is the advantage of using RAW? let's do a list:Let's take a look at RAW quality by ~eduardofrench
1. You will be in command of the processing of the image: White Balance, Color Saturation, Contrast, Sharpness, Noise reduction, etc (instead of allowing the camera to do it)
2. JPG format is a file that is compressed, RAW data isn't or it is minimally compressed, the photo will yield more "quality" -meaning that you will have more per pixel sharpness sometimes in RAW vs JPG-
And some more, but let's focus on why you want to use RAW, RAW data has more latitude for corrections, as an example if your photo came underexposed you have more latitude to correct this problem than when you do it with a JPG this means the post processing
