RAW vs. JPEG

RAW vs. JPEG
Part 1:
ADVANTAGES OF RAW
  • the complete (lossless) data from the camera’s sensor.
  • higher in dynamic range


DISADVANTAGE OF RAW
  • smaller file size
ADVANTAGES OF JPEG
  • able to be manipulated, though not without losing data each time an edit is made.
  • higher in contrast.
  • immediately suitable for printing, sharing, or posting on the Web.
DISADVANTAGES OF JPEG
  • Some color is lost as is some of the resolution (and on some cameras there is slightly more noise in a JPEG than its Raw version).
Part 2:
JPEG:
JPEG has slightly better advantages for you to use. JPEG is the best source for printing. JPEG has a higher contrast, so its not too dark.

RAW:  RAW is not as useful and better like JPEG is. RAW has a small file size, but is high in dynamic range, along with the lossless data from the camera's sensor.

Part 3:
1. it doesn’t process the photo within 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. you have control over the compression of the final image, you are using software to edit and manipulate the pixels as opposed to letting the camera do it automatically.

3.majority of DSLR’s will have the option, but many older point and shoot cameras wont have the capability. You can convert RAW images to JPEG, but you can’t convert the other way. 

4. if you are looking for greater flexibility and processing options.

Lighting; Photography Foundations

What is the literal meaning of photography? "Photo" is Greek for "light." "Graph" is Greek for "writing" or "drawing." Together, it is drawing with lightWhat kind of light makes for soft light? post an example
What kind of light makes for hard light? post an example

What is contrast? Post an example
What does it mean to compensate for lighting? How do you compensate with a camera? Post an example of a picture where the light source is shown Change options to compensate for different lighting conditions in pictures. 

Define depth of field: post a photo of maximum depth of field, minimum (short) depth of fieldthe distance between the nearest and the furthest objects that give an image judged to be in focus in a camera.
