I have been attempting of late to shoot in RAW and JPEG fine and trying to draw a comparison.
One thing that puzzles me is that the same picture in JPEG is (one example) 5.99MB yet the JPEG of the same shot exported from the RAW in LR is only 1.95MB, although the image dimensions in pixels are the same.
The only processing done to the RAW image in LR was WB and colour adjustment and a little clarity. The main reason for my experiment was to see how these WB and colour adjustments could improve on the JPEG in difficult mixed light.
Am I doing something wrong in the exporting?
