I have re-read some of Ken Rockwell's guff about RAW vs JPG and it does seem that many of his arguments are no longer valid--mainly the one about RAW files being camera- and even firmware-specific... er, well DNG has appeared since he wrote that so it's totally invalid now.

I'm not that bothered about the extra size of RAWs either, yes partly cos I've got a Drobo :-) but also, a 16 GB card and an 8 GB spare is enough for a day out... what's that, 800-odd RAW images? I used to take 2 x 36-exp Fujichrome to last me a week :-)

So I guess RAW is where I'll settle, as it does seem to offer the most flexibility, and room for error, at a price of slight extra post-processing maybe.
