You took your shots to the lab, and they processed them according to their machines. If the machines were off, so were your images. That&#039;s like letting your camera&#039;s jpg algorithm decide how your images should look. It gives away control over them.</p><p><br /></p><p>That said, nowadays, the algorithm is usually pretty good, so I don&#039;t shoot everything in raw. I take family snap images in jpg, and I just shoot professionally in raw.</p><p>Professional photographers shoot in raw because they need to. Their work requires a level of control and flexibility that can only be achieved by shooting in a raw format. In much the same way, a Ferrari doesn&#039;t have an automatic transmission.&nbsp; However, if that&#039;s not where you want to invest your time, and it takes time, there is no need to shoot in raw. Your goal should be getting the best-quality images possible and one that is suitable for your intended purpose.</p><p><br /></p><p>You just won&#039;t know what you&#039;re missing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
