I hav...I know what you mean about the lack of RAW. I have a 2003 Canon G3, 4mp point & shoot, and it's one of the few "point & shoot" cameras that has RAW. I've since acquired a canon D30, which takes lovely pictures, but is heavy and inconvenient. I'd love to get a newer P&S with RAW, but as you noted, they seem to be virtually nonexistent. Yet, many of these point and shoots already have somewhat "professional" features such as time and aperture priority, manual mode, etc. And adding RAW seems like it could easily be done in software. It's very frustrating we can't get a nice, small, high quality (yes, digital noise drives me nuts too-- especially in skies) point & shoot. <BR/><BR/>That said, there's also no reason why a program such as Photoshop couldn't give you the same color temperature, shadow, and other adjustments on a jpeg file as it does on a RAW file. This also strikes me as one of those rather mysterious things about the digital imaging world. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, I've never commented up until now, but I love your blog, especially the combination of photography and Mexico, two of my favorite subjects. <BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/><BR/>Kim G (Mr)<BR/>Boston, MAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11526678.post-21513673734775112392007-03-13T11:05:00.000-05:002007-03-13T11:05:00.000-05:00I have to wonder if that DP-1 is ever going to act...I have to wonder if that DP-1 is ever going to actually come out – It has been talked about for more than six months. I tend to think it was a smoke and mirrors item even though some people have actually seen one???<BR/><BR/>JuanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
