Well there you go....

You learn something new every day. I didn't know that on my NEX-7 and in fact most Sony interchangeable lens cameras is....when shooting Raw + jpeg, jpeg only gives you "Standard Jpeg" not fine or superfine.

I have been very happy with my Jpegs, but will have to do some "Fine Jpeg" shots to see if I can notice any improvement.

Here is a quote from an interview with Sony's Mark Weir from this link.

DE:  This is another big request from our readers, that I believe applies to pretty much all the Sony interchangeable lens cameras: When you’re in RAW plus JPEG mode, you can only shoot… is it just JPEG normal? You can’t shoot RAW plus JPEG fine or super fine?

MW:Yeah, we have received requests to be able to set JPEG compression while shooting RAW plus JPEG and we are aware of that request.
