Thanks for the suggestions about "raw". I knew about raw, but I always
thought that the raw format is really, really bulky. Maybe with the new 1
gig storage cards this isn't such a problem anymore.
Do any cameras let you automatically store in raw, then let you review
your images, in the camera, and decide to re-store the less important
images in .jpg? - and delete the raw to save space? I probably would like
to preserve the raw version for only 10% of my pictures.
Yes, but sorry, I don't recall the camera. I read a mini-review
recently of one that did allow copies to be made within the camera
using one of the alternative jpg formats. You might find it if you
check the most recent "news" articles at dpreview.com but I can't
guarantee it.
[from your previous message]
I would like to have a camera that does minimal filtering but still saves
images in some low-loss compressed format. I would like to sharpen
and/or reduce noise using image processing programs on my computer
- after the fact, as I choose.
It's not unusual to have a choice of these options in P&S cameras.
My Fuji S5100 has menu options allowing you to select sharpness
settings among Hard, Normal and Soft, and it (as well as many other
P&S cameras) allows for a choice of less or more jpg compression. I
very rarely take pictures using RAW, but I suppose it would be very
useful in situations having lighting that's unusual, non-uniform or
changing. The most convenient place to see whether a particular
camera has sharpening options would be dpreview.com's full reviews.
If it's not mentioned there, someone in this newsgroup that has the
camera might provide that information, or you could download the
camera's manual from the manufacturer's website.
