Bit of a con, really ... ?
I was making the point that Live View is a good way to get accurate
color
balance at the time the photo is taken, especially under light sources
without continuous spectra. The issue is not whether a camera can take
raw
and compressed images at the same time, but whether one /needs/ a
properly
balanced JPG image /right away/. This is impossible with a raw file.
And how would you suggest that someone gets around that problem? It's
not always practical to shoot a white card & create a custom WB at the
time. (And in my case, I can't do it because the light's changing too
fast to get a useful WB from a white card anyway.)
Is deliberately misreading and misunderstanding what people post your
principal hobby?
Nobody else seems to have a problem with my posts.
Maybe the other people understood what I was talking about. Imagine we were
having a similar conversation 20 years ago...
Me: Polaroid prints can be really handy if you need an immediate picture,
such as when you have to meet a newspaper deadline.
You: But you can get better quality by taking the photo on conventional film
and printing it just the way you like.
Me: Yes, but you won't have it ready in time. The Polaroid gives you the
picture immediately.
You: Printing a negative gives you control you don't get from the instant
print.
Me: [bangs head repeatedly against the wall]
