----- Original Message ----- From: "Achal Pashine" : 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, worth looking at for more info on what some RAW files are: http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/canon_raw.html k
