JPEG vs RAW

Answer 5

-JPEG require little/no additional attention or work to be enjoyed
-RAW must be processed by appropriate computer software to look their best
-RAw contain a great deal more tonal & colour data
-additional data in RAW file means that enhancing & repairing problem images can be done to a greater degree with RAW files
-if no post processing is done to a RAW file, it can look worse than its corresponding out-of-camera JPEG
