I once had a photography instructor tell his students to "resist the rush to raw" and just set up the camera to store images with the least compression, until they had several years of experience with that camera and had discovered specific annoyances that they could not correct through the camera controls.
pretty good advice :-) same as: start with a simple camera. When you can't anymore make what you want with the camera, buy a more sophisticated one", and learn. I started to make photos 65 years ago :-), but to stay in recent cameras, I began with Canon EOS 350D, them EOS 50D and now EOSZ 5DMKII, and after a year I still don't master the last camera. Why should a raw software be simpler than camera menus? Use it only of you can't acheive the result you want with the jpg. Ideally, one should shoot in raw+jpeg, but this is at least 5x the jpg size :-(, and 5x the time for any manipulation, let alone copy from sd card to hard drive jdd -- http://www.dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
