i need help deciding which image quality to use for photos that
would be for 8x10! is jpg fine good enough? someone told me it
wasn't! also, should i use Raw compressed for images that will be
enlarged to 16x20?
Before I shot my first wedding with my D100, I took lots of
pictures of the same subjects using Raw, Tiff and jpeg fine. The
results were such that after blowing the picture up to a size far
greater than 10x8 no differences could be noticed by me. I then
simulated a wedding using the 3 formats and believe me, if you
shoot with raw or tiff you are going to end up in a situation where
the camera is frozen whils't writing to the card. This would be
very embarrasing. I used jpeg fine and have sold as many re-prints
as I ever did with film. (all 10x8) One thing though, as it is
relatively new to me, I did alter the levels on photoshop on many
pictures. (usually auto levels was enough). Hope this helps, Mal
