I think that this is where the crux of the problem lays, and the  
biggest reason I don't shoot RAW. The client has now found yet  
another way to waste your unpaid time. One should never think about  
about fixing it later in (money losing) post production. I quote my  
day rate times 3 for a RAW shoot. Have yet to find anyone willing to  
pay for it.
You now have a preview screen, The answer to the old snip test.  You  
can_always_take care of lighting issues at the time of the shoot.
