JPEG vs RAW

What are three advantages of a RAW file: its uncompressed, the complete (lossless) data from the camera’s sensor, and its higher in dynamic range (ability to display highlights and shadows)
What is one disadvantage of a RAW file: its lower in contrast
What are three advantages of a JPEG file: its a standard format readable by any image program on the market or available open source, higher in contrast, and its sharper
What is one disadvantage of a JPEG file: its lower in dynamic range



1. Under the first heading "Capturing the Images," how much of the data does a RAW file retain after it is captured by the camera? it captures all the data and retains all the information without compressing it, preserving all the information in all the pixels within the image
2. Under the second heading "Processing the Files," what are some of the things that a RAW file enables a photographer to edit after the image is taken? white balance, contrast, highlights, shadows, colours and saturation
3. Under the third heading "Practicalities," what are some of the factors that photographers must consider when deciding to shoot in RAW? not every digital camera has the option to shoot in RAW format, RAW files are significantly larger than JPEG files, you can convert RAW images to JPEG, but you can’t convert the other way
4. Under the fourth heading "Which one is for you?" why would an aspiring professional photographer need to know how to work with RAW files? to invest time in learning editing skills and developing the techniques that will enhance your photos

1. Which file formats discussed have you used in the past? JPEG, GIF, and RAW

2. What is the difference between a Raster and a Vector file? Vector images, unlike raster images, can be any dimension independent of file size. File size increases only with the addition of more vector
