I have never seen an option of compressing a raw image in my canon 10D, thus can not understand what you mean by "raw is a compression too". Is it a "jpeg-like" downsampling of the original data or just a bit depth differences of say 16 bit image vesus 8 bit?
will try to google but it will be helpful to know the technical details of what it means and what are the logics applied in compression of raw files.
thanks,
