My clients always want JPEGs, in low (for the Web) or high (for print
reproduction) resolution. But I always shoot RAW, for two reasons: you get
better JPEGs that way, and I can always go back and start over if I ever need
the picture cropped differently or colorized differently or whatever.

I'm not an independent professional photographer, but photography is part of
my day job. My clients are internal Web developers or maintainers and printers
or graphic designers engaged by my employer for specific projects. So far, I
don't believe I've encountered any who would know what I was talking about if
I offered them RAW files. I've offered a client TIFF files a couple of times,
but they didn't take me up on it.
