Everyone says that RAW is better b/c it's uncompressed and 12 bits of data (as opposed to 8 bits with JPEG). However, after I clean up the RAW photo on your RAW program (adjust exposure, white balance etc.) I end up saving as JPEG. Now I'm back to 8 bits, just like I would be if I were taking a JPEG with my camera. What's the point of taking RAW photos, when you end up saving it as a JPEG. Can someone please explain this to me? Thanks!!!
Sorry if it's a foolish question, it's my first day taking RAW photos.
