Ted! with Raw you can look at a whole in effect contact sheet in the browser
in Photoshop and then tweak the one or two or three in which the density or
color don't match the rest like you want them too. Or are way off.
You can grab ten of them and lighten them all of by a tad or cool them off.
Adds 5 or 10 minutes to your workflow if that or whatever you want.
Then hit a macro button and they all get saved into another folder as Jpegs
or tiffs, or Photoshop files (that's me) what ever you want. How ever you
want it. Well done or medium rare.
It makes you breath easier when you do a shoot whether you have time to
check your monitor as you go along or not. And was you talk like you don't
like to check your monitor so much this would be even better as it kind of
makes it like you almost don't have to.
Some say this clogs up their workflow and make things more complicated but
that's baloney don't listen to them.
To me Raw makes things simpler not the opposite.
To me nothings simpler than getting a little leeway.
You'll soon wonder how you ever left home without it.
Surprised Sandy would not be into this whole Raw thing that time in the
Japanese restaurant she sure went for the Sushi!

Over exposing will still KISS your whites goodbye just like slides.

But you can under expose like a sun of a gun.
