If its just a day of shooting and walking around, I will shoot RAW. But if I go on extended holidays without computer access, then it will be jpeg.

its the other way round for me :P

I shoot jpeg for my clients (unless I understand that they have the intention to enlarge). And I shoot RAW only for my holidays.

I shoot in JPEG only for most of the shots... it's only certain VIP shots, eg Group Shots that I'll switch to RAW+JPEG just in case... after that I'll switch back to JPEG.

Fortunately, I haven't had the need to touch the RAW files.

JPEG+RAW is good enuf when you have the control. If the colors and the exposure is right, dun waste precious time in tweeking in RAW coz the JPEG version is already good enuf. Unless you want a super large file for stock usage
