@ Alex_B: You are only seeing posterization on that second image because you're looking at the higly compressed 800 pixel wide junky Fotki.com copy and not the 2.5 MB original which looks great. And yes, I did mention Cokin grads if I got more serious about landscape photography. I almost bought a set of those but mostly I do baby/family photography nowadays and can't get out much anymore so I passed.
Ah, ok
what if you set up your light on the baby with a strong gradient? then you could justify the cokin grads because you have to compensate
Anyway, we could agree that RAW is not overrated, but that JPG is often underrated and falsely dismissed as unworthy.
