Now to buck the trend !!
Being new to the world of DSLR I started saving in jpeg format in DPP. I decided to change to RAW, but when I converted to TIFF & saw the size of files decided to go back to jpegs ( at least for the time being )
I use DPP to date all photos & will transfer to external HDD when internal drive starts to groan.
Unlke you guys, I can't afford £*00 on Lightroom & CS2/3 to tinker with RAW files, I make do with PSP8 & Elements 2 -which I will upgrade, when funds permit ( lens first - S/W second ) :bonk:
