3.Comparison of file size, image quality, highlight/shadow data

File Size-
 At the end of the day, the JPEG image is ALOOOT smaller in file size compared to the raw image: by at least a couple thouse kb's! 
Image Quality(shadows and highlights)- 
If you just glance at the images above, you can immidiately see a HUGE difference in image quality between a RAW  and JPEG. When i edited the jpeg, there was only so much i could do to it, for the camera had already combined the highlights in the image into 1. However, when it came to processing the raw, the possibilities seemed endless! I could edit every tone in the picture and actually replicate the beauty i saw in person! [if not make  it a tad bot better] :) 

4.My observations

While interacting with the Jpeg and raw photography settings, i believe that a raw allows for a more pure image before and a highly editable image after processing. With raw photos, you control your picture, not the software deciding what 'looks better'. During processing, i literally control every pixel and edit it the way i feel looks best. When finished, you can see every tone, highlight, and shadow down to the pixel level! I was truly amazed by these results of raw. The main down fall, however, is the obvious file size difference, but i believe that is only a small price to pay for an image of that great of quality.
 
What is a RAW image?  
  • Contains minimally processed data from the image sensor (of a digital camera, image scanner, or motion picture film scanner.
  • Are not yet processed-Not ready for print with a graphic processor
  • "Pure, original" image- does not compress or automatically edit the image

Why Shoot RAW photos?
  • -Not as sharp as JPEG
  • -lower contrast levels (looks slightly 'washed out')
  • -Able to display highlights and shadows (helpful when editing layers and shadows)
  • -Have not had White balance set.
  • -Can edit original image 
  • -Has to be processed before it can be processed, printed. or edited.
