hi all i am new to digital photography. i recently went to a photo exhibition where the displays were shot with a 5 mega pixel olympus using raw mode and the results were positively STUNNING
i am an avid amateur photographer and own a canon 5 D for travel photos and portraitsof my children. from what little i know, raw files take up more space and is more troublesome to handle post shooting
my questions :
1.how do i get the raw images from the camera onto the computer and then onto the CD-RW
2.sounds silly but can i crop raw images like i do jpeg? if so will the results eg sharpness be better
3. apart from the bigger space needed for raw is there any other disadvantage shooting raw when complared to jpeg? [ i dont email my photos at all]
4. what are the advanteages of shooting RAw
thanks
