RAW rocks! - 03-30-2007, 11:08 AM

Okay, so I've been very late in jumping onto the RAW bandwagon. I picked up a copy of Bibble Pro a few weeks ago and have started playing around with it using the images that I shot at Brad's last week. The more I learn about how to use Bibble the more I think that RAW just ROCKS! But, then again, most of you already knew that. I can see a serious decrease in the amount of time that I spend in Photoshop.

I still don't like how few images I get onto a 2Gb card with my D200.

I only have one RAW setting. Everything else is RAW + some form of jpg. I don't guess I know what compressed RAW is.

I'm definitely going to need some new cards when I get my 5D later this year.
