Hi, I fairly recently started shooting almost exclusively in RAW.
I know you're not supposed to do PP on JPEGs and save them over and over again, so I'm wondering if my current process is correct as far as saving a JPEG the minimal amount of times?
1. I open the shot in the RAW application and make any adjustments.
2. I convert to a JPEG file.
3. I then open the JPEG in Photoshop and make any necessary adjustments there.
4. I then save the finalized JPEG again.
I'm wondering if I should maybe save the files I intend to work on further in Photoshop as TIFFs from the RAW application, and then after my PP work is finished, save the final as a JPEG?
Any tips/suggestions as to the proper flow with saving JPEGs the minimal amount of times to prevent unnecessary compression/data loss welcomed!
