The two main formats a camera captures are JPG (or JPEG) and RAW. The RAW file retains all the uncompressed data captured by the camera sensor to produce a viewable image. This helps while shooting in low-light conditions. RAWs help in recovering highlights and shadows in post-processing without pixelating or introducing noise/grains in the images. JPG images are easier and faster to upload and share via email, etc., as timing is of the essence. RAW is ideal for portraits, still-life and fashion shoots, for both hobbyists and professionals. Ultimately, a RAW file gives you the greatest bandwidth for creative freedom in image editing.
Unlocking the Potential of RAW Format in Photography
RAW is an uncompressed, lossless image format that records all the information that the sensor captures. It is during post-processing and fine-tuning of images that we see how the potential of RAW files can be realised.
