to shoot RAW with smallest jpeg...as you can now only shoot RAW and largest jpeg ..i do this so windows can see the jpeg for sorting and if i need a quick one for face book or something

For general interest... there are a few alternatives that allow you to avoid having to track and manage two sets of files. There's the Microsoft Camera Codec Pack, which allows Windows to use the JPEG embedded in a raw file as the file's thumbnail, and there are image viewers like Faststone that fully display the embedded JPEG. I find using both of those that I never need to shoot raw+JPEG, or extract the JPEGs from raw files (with something like Instant JPEG from RAW), for reviewing and managing files. Of course if you use something like DPP or Lighroom, you don't need to shoot raw+JPEG either. The only reason I'd do it is if I had to handover JPEGs straight off the memory card.
