What is so bad about RAW?

[Steve5D]

So which format do you think is better?

There isn't a 'better'. I just depends on what I'm shooting and why.

It was hard to tell, because you sure got your knickers in a twist.

If I got upset every time someone said something I disagreed with, my head would detonate. If I got upset every time someone said something I disagreed with, about something that is of, at the end of the day, absolutely no consequence, I'd have myself committed...

........ it wasn't that long ago that 36 exposures was all you could expect from one "storage device" .........

Never heard of an MF-23 & MF-24 backs?

You were helpful once, my apology for offending you.

I'm not offended at all...

Others debating jpeg is better and raw is not. They don't say anything good thing about raw.

Seriously?

You're upset because someone likes something different?

Dude, I'm sorry, but that's just funny...

The guy with the vlog is a total moron, there, I said it. This is why I don't like him. Not because he shoots jpeg, but because he insists that jpeg is better and that everyone who uses raw uses it to fix problems. I don't like him because he's a self-promoted expert and the internet already has ken rockwell and zach arias. The last thing we need is this bozo telling people who don't know any better that 'almost all pros use jpeg only these days', that 'camera makers are getting away from raw' (wtf does that even mean?) and blatantly incorrect lines about how 'all video is j/mpeg'.

I don't like him because he's a douchey low-end protog who thinks he's the sh*t because he's shot a few slides 'back in the day', maybe more than a few - I don't even care, but I don't dislike him because he shoots differently than I do.

Then again, I hate all vloggers, even the ones with big boobs.

You know what, I don't think there's anything bad about RAW.. RAW, cooked.. it's all good... just don't **** with it when it's green and fuzzy.

I always laugh when people say that 8gb isn't enough, it wasn't that long ago that 36 exposures was all you could expect from one "storage device" considerably larger by volume than today's CF and SD cards.

So you're saying technology progresses and new cameras are better than old ones ?

 

[unpopular]

I'm saying that you can fit more data into less physical space. The cameras themselves are more or less the same.

I always get salmonila and semolina confused, just as I get Salina and saliva confused.

holy cow...i read his page and i still dont know WTF a "Hybrid" photographer is. judging by his work, its a cross between a crappy photographer and a #^$%@# photographer.

 

[ShooterJ]

Hybrid Photographer... like, I take pictures of different ****... or, I'm a Quasimodo lookin sumbitch and this was the only handle I could think of to take the focus off my webbed feet and third eye?

EDIT: I'd like to add that this forum has failed to acknowledge Oklahoma, considering "sumbitch" is not censored. Our "hybrid" words aren't good enough for your little red button?

I know. And he thinks he's some kind of marketing guru just to add insult to injury.

This guy is determined to be the next Ken Rockwell.
