Haha...MR, I started this thread about shooting RAW. And it's a good idea all things equal. But it's not the holy grail, to be sure. I should shoot more RAW (or at least RAW +JPG) than I do, but the slower write times (RAW files are so much larger) really annoy me when I'm click-click-clicking.
Cameraland can get so technical (and pedantic) and most of the sites dedicated to pure photography are filled with so much technical information...that last .01pct of perfection. And I think that people focus so much on that aspect...the finest honing...and often ignore the 99.99 pct of what makes a good experience with your camera. And I'd assert that at least 90pct of that is having fun and enjoying it. If you're not having fun, you're not clicking. And that kind of defeats the purpose of it all.
