RAW View

[Peter Kalentzis]

Hey guys... quick question.

After reading all about ISO (reg Scarlet) / WB / clipping...

Is there a benefit to not always viewing what you are capturing in RAW? Wouldn't you ALWAYS benefit by lighting the scene for what the sensor sees? Why would you ever want or should not use that feed exclusively?

The only thing I can come up with is to show the client a more graded image. Is that it? Is there any other benefits?

I apologize in advance as I am surely missing something.

Thanks for the help!

The Raw view is not an accurate view either. There is a curve applied to the image that allows you to see all the information that is being recorded.

check this thread I started when I was having my own doubts about what Raw View Mode was for and how important was it.
