yes you have, my shots! hehe

i'm sorry, just had to throw some poor humor in.

Even though i'm such a newbie, i also shoot in RAW. My reasoning, you capture more data. RAW uses the full bits of your CCD/CMOS (it is CMOS for canon, right? remember, newbie here). From everything i've read JPEG captures the image in 8 bits and RAW captures in 12 bits, yes?

For me, it just makes sense to utilize the full potential of the camera to get the best image quality possible. BUT! it all comes down to personal preference.

Isn't that why people always bought the kodachrome film? what's that old Paul Simon song....

anyway, just my 2 cents worth.
