The RAW format provides the most data, which is the basis for generating the best fi nal image. This format contains all of the actual data captured by the camera’s CCD or CMOS sensor. Finally and most importantly, capturing RAW format fi les gives you a true original, a digital negative. You can always return to your original and process it diff erently.
