hello,

what you are seeing is largely un processed and uncompressed, the RAW files need post processing to be useful.

some software does a better job of a preview image than others, but the raw files themselves are not useful for anything. aside from being archival.

i might suggest shooting RAW+JPEG, this really helped me get to know my PP software and reveal some shortcomings of the in-camera jpeg processing.

the cameras are very smart, and do an OK job in a lot of situations, but PP software can really help reveal things about your shots that can bring out things the camera engine might miss.

i have attached a couple of my processed shots, the ant at the bottom is an out of the camera Jpeg, and the same images is a processed RAW file, saved as Jpeg.

while the Ant JPEG is fine and pretty accurate, punching up the local tones brings a little drama in my opinion.

your camera sensor essentially "sees" everything and grabs it, the in camera Jpeg process makes assumptions that my or may not be what you were going for
