JPEG: if you have no intention to do post production editing
RAW: if you have intention to do post production editing
thank you, you're the real hero
Absolutely not as dry and cut. If you already have captured an image properly then you don't need do drastic post production but you can still do quite a lot with JPG. Sure Raw has WAY more leeway with exposure and more stops for color but if you are satisfied with how your camera handles JPEGs (also selecting good picture profile helps) then you only need to do small touch ups. With JPG you are more locked into the picture you took and raw is more flexible, im not denying that. I am saying JPEGs still have a good amount of editing possibilities especially if you take good quality JPEGs. The better picture you take "in the field" the less time you need to use in post.
What if i am going to do a car shoot for facebook sale post, and i dont want to edit every photo, i just want to put the same filter on all the photos so they have the same theme?
@@1337soundeZ jpg
@@1337soundeZ I can’t speak to every camera but Nikon has an option to take both a RAW photo and a JPEG at the same time. This takes up more memory of course but it allows you to edit the RAW if you want, and gives you a JPEG that’s ready to go (more or less)
When you brightened up that cliff and all the details appeared out of nowhere it blew my mind! I've ordered my first DSLR and lens today, I'll definitely be shooting raw! Thanks Nemanja!
You're welcome. Good luck and have fun!
@@NemanjaSekulic thanks! I'm not in a position to spend a lot of money so I ordered a used nikon d3200 and AF-S 35mm 1.8g lens, is this a capable camera for learning the basics and getting comfortable with manual?
It is a good camera for beginners.
all the noise appeared :) i like to have a format something between jpg and raw: noise reduction with little sharpening, but preserve native WB and 10-12-14bit dynamic range.
@@macauleysmith3472 Fantastic camera!
JPEG = [Compressed] Less Quality + Less File Size
Raw = [No Compression] Ultra Quality + Huge File Size
Thanks bro your my data saver.
@whole27
Depends on the photo and how much the compression software can save. For me, it's about 7 times larger for RAW for same scene. But I'm not expert so others can probably answer better. Just throwing in my 2 cents.
I wonder why they can't just add PNG as an option instead. PNG is a lossless compression.
@@SgtOkiDoki Isn't 3 bytes equal to 24 bits
@@korokin6738 but raw is far better than png
I knew the difference but I didn't know that it was soooo big.
Thanks for opening my eyes
You're very welcome 😊

Lmao 😂
FIRST THING THAT CAME TO MY MIND!!
just kidding
New subs here. I hope you do the same for me!
I’ve been shooting jpeg for over 15 months now and this video just blew my mind! I’ll surely try out raw
Have fun!
@@NemanjaSekulic you've saved another soul
Bless you
Comparing the files with food was the best explanation I had about it. So clear that it is impossible to forget.
I'm glad that you like it 😊
Best explanation I've seen on RAW vs JPEG. Great work Nemanja!
Thanks a lot. I'm glad that you like it.
And I like the background: Life is like a camera: Focus, Capture, Develop. Awesome!
I was a bit skeptical at first but I was INSTANTLY sold after he slid the shadow slider on the underexposed raw file.
RAW format is really amazing and its disadvantages are nothing in compared to that of the JPEG format. RAW is far more better than JPEG. Thanks for such an amazing explanation !!!!
You're very welcome.
Oh, thank you Nemanja! As a former physicist and computer graphics professional before seriously taking up photography in retirement, the differences were clear to me. But, how to explain them to nonscientists? Hopefully the "camera brand X has better color science than brand Y" crowd won't discover your heresy. However, since they may attack you through moral arguments, I do want to suggest that the difference is important even when you haven't made some exposure or initial white balance mistake. There are valid artistic and even professional reasons to do color toning in post-production, even if you "got it exactly right in camera".
One technical point. The big irreversible step is when you truncate from 12 to 15 bits to 8 bits. The entire game here, as you pointed out, is to delay that truncation as much as possible, to just before you send out the final product. Since your eye separates red, green, and blue the total number of colors is less important than the number of shades of each primary color. So, JPEG gives you 2^8 or 256 shades of, say, red. 14-bit raw gives you 16,000 shades of red. If you do anything like change the white balance or especially use tone curves, vibrance, or clarity adjustments then you start to stretch and compress the distances between adjacent shades. Suddenly, something that was too small to see becomes visible as an artifact, as your examples showed.
My moment of truth was about two years after I bought a Canon Rebel XSi. I knew that it had an option for raw output, but I couldn't be bothered. I took a trip to Alaska, which because of life's little surprises, turned out to be a trip of a lifetime. After I came back, I figured out how to do raw and largely converted. After two years of learning, I realized that my Alaska pictures could be vastly improved by post processing. I started using my new skills on them, and very quickly ran into the problems you showed. So, my Alaska pictures, taken in weather conditions that professional photographers would have killed to experience, remain forever frozen in amateurland. I see nothing wrong with recording both JPEG and raw, but keep the original data as well for your unique images, in case you later grow as a photographer or artist.
Hi Stuart,
I completely agree with you. Thanks for sharing your experience with us. Sometimes I like to go through my old raw files and retouch them again, with some new skills that I got in the meantime.
Have fun and have a great week!
@@NemanjaSekulic, thank you for your support. I think that your channel is a big contribution to photographic education. I keep telling my friends about your channel.
Thanks a lot for your support too!
I spent a whole month shooting on JPEG on my d7500 with a variety of lenses. I learned I lost a LOT of detail in images, especially when you zoom in and pixel peep. The lost in quality is very noticeable. I turn on RAW and images begin to look sharper, more detail, and lighting looks a lot better (contrast and colors).
I seriously love the enthusiasm that you bring to every single video. I love the way you explain things and I love the little bits of humor you throw in your videos! You are seriously the best Creator I have ever come across. I can not express my gratitude for you continuously posting amazing videos.
You're very welcome. I'm happy when I got such a feedback! I'm glad that you like my tutorials and that you find them helpful.
Wish you a great day!
I already know something about the difference but this video clear all my doubts about RAW vs JPEG.
THANKS for the video!😍
You're welcome!
There's an old saying that goes something like: "When the student is ready, a teacher appears."
I know I'm late to this party, but I started to research raw format and came across this great video. It's what the Internet promised to do: make the knowledge of others available to anyone.
Well-done. Thanks.
I've never understood why anyone would spend large amounts of money on a good camera and lenses, then shoot JPEG!
Exactly my word.
Odonata Lover try thinking and it’ll be easier to comprehend
Coz it is their money..

I'm an old fart and my photography dates back to the film days of the 60's. Basically with film you have to get it right or as right as possible, I was pretty good at this and that skill has been carried over to Digital photography. I shoot jpeg photos mostly and I have no complaints and it seems that no one else have any complaints. We each get what we want from photography, I am satisfied with my results.
Because you need to edit RAW files to get a good photograph. Not everyone's a photo editor as well. Most people just want to take beautiful photos, and leave it at that.
First I learned something from this video.
Essentials are however:
1. One will need editing software to make RAW file even usable in the browser or for the printing. JPEG is a ready image.
2. RAWs are in the magnitude of 5 times bigger than JPEG and not for immediate use on Instagram or social sites.
3. If you have an understanding of OR good control over exposure and prefer natural light photography you can rely upon JPEG, for RAW you need to be fully aware of the editing process. And in cases where post-processing is needed RAW is essential.
4. RAW + jpeg is the way. With RAW you can RECOVER details: It is a safety mechanism, so essential to know.
5. An underexposed picture is always worse than an overexposed one (except in low light portrait), as you will introduce noise by increasing the brightness of an under-exposed image. So use exposure compensation mechanism while shooting itself.
I agree on he first four poins, but in my opinion a (slightly) underexposed picture is better than a (slightly) overexposed one, because you can recover those shadows (of course you will get noise), but once your highlights go completely white, you can't restore the details in there.
@@NoIDeaSynchro You are right, I missed this point and just wrote low light situation.
Yes, shades do constitute an important part and will give a dramatic impact. I don't under-estimate the post-processing and I have 3 such tools like Photoshop, Luminar 3 and Nikon Capture NX-D. I still prefer learning and mastering the exposure triangle and capability of each camera I would use. They provide many things.
Wow, the difference is incredible! I just bought my first DSLR and I'm so glad I stumbled across this video, not played around with settings much so far but after watching this I've just switched to RAW! Thank you.
It's quarantined and I see this as very good time to learn photography. Thank you for the detailed information about JPEG and RAW
File size be damned! This has convinced me I need to shoot in Raw.
😊👊🏻
You explained it in a fantastic way... I specially liked the part how you explained the disadvantages of RAW files..
The best description of raw vs jpeg by far! Thanks brother! You are the best
You're very welcome.
Finally I can comprehend the differences. Thanks!
You're very welcome.
Thank you so much! I'm new to photography and my photos were coming out too dark and i couldn't fix them. Come to find i was shooting in jpeg. I honestly thought that taking a picture with fewer or no edits was better than editing a photo that looks unrealistic. You taught me something new. Thank you
Check your camera settings. Your iso may of been too low or Shutter speed to high .
Your FOOD comparison was perfect. Can't remember the time when i shot JPEG only. Great video.
Thanks a lot Jim! Have a great day.
I like your analogy to food, making your clip more interesting and easier “digestive” :)
I'm glad that you like it.
Yum
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for.. EXAMPLES!
Very informative and useful video.

Hvala 👊🏻😎
I wondered for so long as to why my photos looked like shit post-production. Now I know. I feel this slight nuance (paired with learning photo-editing programs) is the step from amateur to beyond. Grateful I found a video under 20 minutes that explained everything in detail and Nemanja, you're a personable and knowledgeable guy. I appreciate that, so thank you for opening my eyes to over 4,000 colors and keep up the awesome work!
You're very welcome 😊
This is the ONLY video I needed to watch! so simple and clear explanation!
Im will hopefully get a camera that supports raw sooooon!!!
Even the photographer start talking about food when I started a diet. Am Imagining things!!! Love the explanation thanks a lot.
😂😂😂
Great video! I’m an amateur photographer and just decided to start shooting jn RAW. This video made me EXCITED to shoot in RAW! Thank you for showing side by side examples! There’s a clear advantage!
You're very welcome. Have fun!
I like your comparison of RAWs and JPEGs. I personally use JPEGs about 90% of the time. For me, RAWs only make sence for really hard post production changes. Photography is in my opinion more the moment you take a picture. Right exposure, correct white balance. Most of my photos do not need to get edited that hard.
Anyways, I think your extreme examples shew the difference very well. And if I need to take a photo in situations where a high dynamic range is nessecary, I highly prefer shooting RAW instead of an in camera HDR. All in all your video made me think about RAWs again.
Thanks for the interesting video! Bye :)
You're very welcome. Have a great day 😊
Finally someone who shows difference between JPEG and raw on particular examples. I am now in RAW team ;)
Nemanja, excellent explanation of the differences between RAW files vs JPEG files. You have sold me on RAW files! Thank you!
You're very welcome Glen. Have a great day.
Тако је брате, сви ти разлози које си навео на крају видеа су занемарљиви у односу на оно што добијаш од RAW фајлова. Иако се разумијем у све то, увијек је добро погледати нечију другу рецензију, одличан клип!
Damn good description of raw VS jpg! Man i had no clue until now, just how much information raw has Vs jpg. Thanks for the vid
You're very welcome 😊
Odlično. Ne razumem se u fotografiju, ali si me Nemanja sa ovim videom stvarno zainteresovao za tu oblast.
Drago mi je da ti se sviđa.
Thank you for this great explanation and demonstration. You have convinced me now to shoot in Raw format all the time - no question about it!!
You're very welcome 😊
THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO! I'm basically a JPEG kind of guy doing street photography (a lot in black and white) but I now also see the advantages of RAW format...thanks again!
WOW i never knew that RAW would be this much powerful
! Thank you!
You're very welcome.
This video is a good example of how RAW comes to the rescue when you take a photo with the wrong settings to begin with. If you take the same photo with the right settings, you won't need the RAW file. Some people don't realise how important it is to learn how to use your camera, especially adjusting the default settings, e.g. on my Panasonic, I had to change the default settings, reducing the shadows and sharpness a lot and drastically increasing the colour saturation. This made a massive difference, and then I didn't need the RAW file any more.
Only u say this.No one in the world would agree
"The picture is made not taken."
- A. Adams
In Italy, we make a photo, we don't take a photo unless someone gives us one.
That was true in his day. Now they are simply "captured."
20 and over years taking pictures but i loved the food comparison when talking about raw and jpeg , no iḿ actually hungry. Thanks for the video
Thank you for this video. It clearly explains the benefits of RAW over JPG. Well done!
You're very welcome.
Excellent video-- especially showing the details that RAW lets you pull out of dark areas. One advantage of JPEG that wasn't mentioned, however, is you can get more continuous shots off in the same amount of time. Not a biggie for me, but it is an overlooked advantage.
Thanks David. Yes you are right about continuous shots.
*Is it Photoshop?* I'm just using "Photos" on an older Mac right now and the eyedropper doesn't work quite the same way. In the meantime this video has totally taught me something I really needed to know about editing raw photos! TY
Oh man, from photoshop to MacDonald ,you are good in everything
Thanks 😉
Perfect comparison to food!
I explained it like that to my friend and he understood it :D
I'm glad that you like it 😊
Totally agree. But one more advantage of jpeg files is compatibility: they can be edited in many programs. There are few options for editing raw files.
hi nemanja. thank you for a beautiful video. i started photography in october 2018. and since then i was using jpeg fine , as i had no software to convert raw to jpeg or even opne them. but i was always wanted to shoot in raw and now after your video i think i have made my mind and will start shooting raw when i have space and time. its very clear how good i caan treat my photos later on with raw. so thank you for inspiring me to take up raw now which is a good thing. god bless.
You're very welcome. Have fun with your camera!
After 10 years of jpeg shooting,you chnage my mind ,now i am raw shooter...thanks man.......
You're welcome.
RAW vs JPEG
It's just like ordering pizza from leading brands Pizza Hut or Domino's etc. vs buying raw ingredients like flour, seasoning, tomatoes for making sauce etc and making pizza at home from scratch.
Newbees like readymade cooked food but pros know how to cook their own food the better way.
By pizza analogy, we can achieve better or say more desired results if we know the thing. Or worse, it may make the pizza unusable for consumption. But all must try their hands once in the path of becoming a pro.
This video helped me alot to understand the difference between raw and jpeg as a new beginner in photography
Hi! Thanks for the video - I must say I've been aware of all that stuff already, but it's just a pleasure to listen to you. Great job!
You're very welcome!
Thank you very much, Nemanja!
Now only RAW+JPEG !!

This is the best explanation and live comparison that I have ever saw in my life. You're awesome
Thanks a lot.
I always shoot in dual mode. Both JPEG and RAW. My clients can have a copy of the JPEGs but any post-processing is done on the RAW files.
So you give them uncompleted work?
@@ekevanderzee9538 If they want photos right away yes I do. Most of my work needs very little post editing and they can ask for any They want edited. That is for event photos, portraits get worked before delivery.
I came on to this video because I'm trying to decide a purchase between DJI drones - specifically the Mini SE vs Mini 2. The SE only takes photos in JPEG, while the Mini 2 takes raw. This comparison was great! Super quick and you clearly know what you're doing which made it easy to follow. Only wish was there was a color editing comparison. Great video nonetheless, thanks for this.

Thats an amazing explaining ! Thanks alot ! Now i know whats the difference between RAW and JPEG files !!
You're very welcome.
Thanks, now I know the difference between raw and jpeg....you the man!!!
You're very welcome.
Camera makers go to a lot of trouble to make the Jpegs their cameras produce good quality, natural looking images. Most cameras have adjustment features to adjust colour to suit your taste. I have a 2005 Canon G5 with an f2 lens and it makes better pictures than my Sony A6400.
There is no need to shoot raw. Thats specially the case today because the lenses and sensors are so good the images are also nigh on impossible to improve.
Want to spend more time shooting instead of in front of the computer? Shoot Jpeg, large, superfine. You can make a few minor adjustment if you want in your computers free software...brightness maybe, but you should not need to alter colour or sharpness.
Omg wow, the restaurant example is literally the best way to put it forward!! Thank you so much haha!
Just depends on how much post processing you do whether to shoot raw or jpeg.
Even if you don't do any large post processing now, it's generally a good idea to keep the RAW files, for just in case. A good, free RAW editor is RAWTherapee... no need to spend a ton of money on LR.
@@soiledhalo2296 I use RAW and JPEG. RAW files just take up to much disk space if you shoot a lot of pics.
I agree
I was not intended to learn the differences between the RAW & JPEG, but I just saw your video and now I'm very happy that I learned it in an easy way. Very nice.

Thank you for this video. I understand the whole thing.
You're very welcome.
For JPG image: it must do everything when you shoot photo
- camera setting
- catch good time for lights if natural
- choose best postition
don't think about editing
dobar, pratio sam i strance na ovu temu, ali nisam našao ovako poređenje gde se odmah vidi razlika.
Hvala! Drago mi je da ti se sviđa.
Raw you can save details, bring them back to life , Jpeg gone. Good tutorial bro.
raw vdeo vs compressed video even makes bigger difference than still images.
I love your explanation at the end and how you state that some people say shooting in raw takes so much time to touch up and you Love to do it and isn't that what it's all about. Great post and thanks for the advice because I've always shot in jpeg but recently I purchased a SanDisk extreme pro 128gb 95mb/s uhs-I u3 c10 sd card and now have plenty of room to shoot raw.
now i understand ; raw is like ms word and jpeg is like a pdf copy
Thank you Nemanja, this really helped me understand Raw files. I will start shooting in Raw now. Thanks you.
You're very welcome.
@@NemanjaSekulic What size SD Card do you recommend I get for shooting raw? I know the files are a lot bigger. Would a 64GB large enough?
Shame that Adobe dropped support for CS6 and now you have to convert to DNG first before using the Camera Raw plugin
what about adobe camera raw plugin?
kerenbanget its a native plugin for photoshop. I think for Lightroom also. Our man Thomas Knoll did a work of genius on that one 😂
Really well explained, I'm thinking of buying lightroom aswell. After watching this I am really enthusiastic to begin!
Thanks. I'm glad that you like it. If you have a Photoshop, you don't need Lightroom. Only if you need catalog for your photos.
Totally agree with you bud🙌🏻
Compare JPEG and RAW as food is brilliant! Now i understand the different. Thanks dude 🇮🇩

Okay, the conclusion is, raw files are better in every way
But it takes about 5x more memory
@@andyjou8041 Doesn't matter when you have like 2 128GB sd cards XD
Not quite. In workloads where a fast turnaround time isn't all that important, RAW files all the way, but if you work for an agency that requires a fast turnaround time, you must shoot jpeg. No specialized software is required to it, and they are lightweight enough that posting them isn't going to take up that much bandwidth. Plus, a lot of these pictures that these sorts of jobs takes usually won't be in large prints. They'll either be used for magazines or websites, where things like compression artifacts are more likely to be hidden by the low resolution of the print or final image.
Hell, let's throw street photography into the mix, let's say you're a witness to a crime, you try your damndest to get a picture of the perp or their license plate, police will NEED that image, and you don't want to make them wait any longer than necessary because you had your camera set to raw only.
unless you are lazy.
@@ZeldagigafanMatthew raw files include a .jpg image. That's what the screen shows you and can normally be sent to your phone these days. Then, if it isnsuch an intense situation, it might have been a challenge to get is exposed properly. Also, the qualitybof the evidence might be improved when you are able to produce a raw file.
Dude I love this video! Raw is the way to go. I feel like photography is about creating your own brand through your own eyes. So if you only shoot JPEG and you let your camera or someone else do your processing for you, you're not using your best artistic potential. Why would you want to sacrifice all that image quality just for convenience? I think that's why more well known professional photographers make it. They don't sacrifice.
You look like Chelsea x-player Eden Hazard 😅

Eden Hazard quits football to start photography...
Lol. True

Raw is must for dynamic range photos like sky and landscapes.
Seems we lives completely in processed world....
Nemanja, the noise in the processed RAW is partly recoverable in Camera RAW using the "Detail" pull down menu, I normally start with pulling down all the Sharpening sliders, then zoom fully into 1600% into the shadows, and pull up the color slider until digital noise starts disappearing, to around 36, only adding a very small amounts of color detail and smoothness (around 10-15). I then pull up the Luminance Slider while holding the "ALT" key until the pixels just start to smooth out a little. I add about 0.8-1.0 Radius and about 10-15 Detail (while holding alt key down to check for artifacts and gosting). I then zoom out to "Fit in view" or a little closer to the subject and pull up Masking until I get a photo negative of the detail I want. Lastly I pull up the Amount of sharpening while holding down the ALT key until it looks naturally sharp, taking care not to over sharpen.
Hi Victor, thank you for the tips. Have a great day!
