Shooting RAW as religious doctrine

That question has been SO answered! The answer is no. People do feel the need to push on the subject, and it goes far beyond suggesting. If someone has an issue it's worth trying to see if using RAW will help, but I think we all know it's available.

I used to shoot only jpeg, even though I always edited them. Once I got the EM-5 and Lightroom, the editing I normally do really is just easier using RAW, and my workflow is really the same. But I understand that some people don't want to edit at all, or just prefer to use jpeg for whatever reason, and I don't care one whit! To each his own for heaven's sake! I really don't know why the subject gets people lecturing, but it's not the only one here.

Maybe every jpeg setting question should be attached to this sentence...."Of course I shoot RAW, but a friend has no computer and takes cards directly to Walmart so what settings should he use?"
