Jpeg vs. Raw Files - Digital Photography Tips by Berger Bros Camera Video
http://www.Berger-Bros.com
One of the most frequently asked questions posed by students new to the
world of digital photography is this:
"What is the difference between a jpeg file and a raw file?"
Yvonne Berger, head photography instructor at Berger Bros Cameras in long
Island, New York, explains the difference between jpeg and raw files and
breaks it down in a simple and easy to understand explanation.
A jpeg file is a basic file that every digital camera is capable of taking. So, whether you're using a point and shoot or a digital slr, chances are the default setting is a jpeg file.
The jpeg file gets processed within your camera.
However, a raw file gets processed "post process" with an editing software program.
Why shoot jpeg vs. a raw file? A jpeg file is easier to use and can be emailed, etc.
A raw file needs editing software, like Adobe Photoshop Elements, Photoshop CS5, Lightroom...even Picasa...in order to be read.
Benefits of jpeg
1) it's quick
2) easy to use, and
3) ready to go
Benefits of raw files
1) better quality than jpeg
So, which one should you use?
Well, if you're using a lower end point and shoot camera then chances are you can't use raw...so you'll need to go with jpeg files.
Some of the higher end point and shoot cameras can shoot raw by using the setting "jpeg plus raw".
