5DM3 HDR Article

I for one have forayed into RAW but as stated previously, don't have the time or ambition ATM to bother... JPEG works and my clients have all been exceptionally happy. JPEG has paid for all my cameras to date so to dismiss it because it's slightly lacking would make me an idiot... horses for courses.

I'm in the same boat. I know people like to go poopoo on jpegs, but if that's what a client asks for, that's what I'm going to give them. Unless they specifically ask for raw or TIFF files, or I'm shooting something that I know will need substantial manipulation in post processing, jpegs suffice for my needs most of the time. IMHO, jpegs still offer far more latitude that what was possible in the days of film. I completely understand the reasoning for shooting raw if you need to extract every last pixel of detail and produce images at a very high level, but too often I see it used as a crutch for poor technique.

ha, HDR in jpeg for the 5DMarkus the 3rd. is like a camera app in the iphone

True... but having an iphone available at the right time is better than not having a 1Dx when you need one.
