I view it this way: The fact that I __CAN__ save perhaps a shot that
was not perfect, gives me good enough reason to shoot raw..
You aren't complaining about that I don't think, I think your complaint
is, people think (raw & volume) compensates for good photographic
skills. It does not.
A magazine I read 10+ years ago; they took 10 pros and gave them P&S
cameras, and 10 photo students in a college, and gave them whatever gear
they wanted. In a blind taste test, the pros won, every single one of
them... P&S vs a few thousand in equipment. It's the eyeball, not the
camera that ultimately make or break the photo..
That said, if I hate myself because I underexposed a stop, and I can
save it back in raw, why not?
Waste of space? True, but then again, if wasting 10 Gig's but the one
decisive shot is what saved, then I think it's well worth it..
