Re: Using the Embedded JPEG from SRW files

Thanks for the reply, and sorry - I should have explained where I'm coming from in more detail. Let's say I go on a trip - I take a thousand photos, purge half once I get home and then of the remaining 500 have like 10 I would ever want to actually output anything from. The other 490 are fine for viewing on a computer to remind me of things I've done, but I'll likely never do any PP on them.

So, I have RAWs for everything, but they're a pain to share around. I honestly don't think I'm gaining much by batch processing all 500 in LR into JPEGs judging from the results above since there will be tremendous variety between shots... at least, not without investing a bunch of time I'd rather use taking more trips.  

Do I lose anything by just extracting the JPEGs from the SRW files when needed, as opposed to using the RAW+Superfine setting in-camera?
