Tony Northrup's CONFUSING RAW VS JPEG Video: My Thoughts

A lot of people asked me what my opinion was of a recent video that Tony Northrup made with the title "jpg vs raw, Why i started shooting jpg more". Here's my take on some of the confusing statements that were made.

Are you sure that this video isn't just a knee jerk response because you are butt hurt that someone is challenging your opinion and that you have unconciously taken certain points out of context.

    Long time since this question was asked, but perhaps Canon's Digital Photo Professional will be good for you? I haven't used it myself, as I'm a Nikon user and use Nikon's Capture NX-D. But my experience with the Nikon software is that when you open up the raw files, they are set by default with the same colours as you see with the jpegs. Perhaps the Canon software works in a similar way? Beats trying to use Lightroom when you don't really know what you're doing (I'm well and truly in that category), and you can still make many of the same adjustments (exposure, contrast, saturation, etc). Also, the price is right - free.

    I think Tony Northrup's video was meant for the average amateur photographer. He has a point. I is not always better to shoot "every single shoot" in uncompressed RAW, when an amateur shooter aims to merely produce photos for his own purpose. For example for watching family photos on the tablet. An amateur shooter produces JPEGs in the result and it is OK to skip the development process from RAW to JPEG sometimes, especially in situations Tony Northrup talked about. An no, you are not right about data storage. It is an issue for the average beginner photographer. Most people use SSDs on their laptops or limited capacities on their smartphones. 128, 256 or 512GB are most common. More than a 512GB SSD is rare and very expensive. Always using external hard drives is less comfortable and has not the same mobility. Clouds backupping is also not cheap; the average price is 10 bucks a month for 1TB.

    Dude some of this was good but some was ridiculous. Shooting a wedding is important shooting my dog hump his pillow isnt. I shoot the wedding in raw and the humping in jpeg. The fact is jpeg is a little easier. Example: One of my favorite cameras won’t transfer raw to my cell phone. So I can’t quickly transfer (without a card reader) from my camera to my phone then send it to friends or post to social. I do this frequently when I travel. That is a great case for jpeg. All of my paid work is raw and most of the rest is jpeg

    Spot on JP! One other consideration for always shooting in RAW+ Photo editing software continues to evolve and algorithms for noise reduction and other artifacts continue to improve. I've pulled back some old RAWs from more than 10 years ago and was able to really clean them up much more than was possible when they were originally shot. This trend will continue until there's no longer a need to discuss signal to noise ratios. If you ask anyone who started shooting in the film days whether they wanted just their prints and to forget about the negatives you'd get a very perplexed look in response to the question. It's interesting to hear comments like; "Oh, editing your photos in post is cheating" because if I'm not mistaken, I remember the opposite response to any photographer who post processed their own film. For most people, your images are stored memories to be enjoyed for hopefully generations to come. It is always best to capture images today in the highest possible resolution so that they stand up to the test of time.

    Jared you say Tony has incoherent argument, yet the title of your debate is also completely misleading and misrepresenting the situation. This is not a battle on JPEG vs RAW, as many single minded viewer of yours sees it. Rather, it is Jared: shooting RAW all the time regardless, vs Tony: shooting a mix of RAW and JPG depending on the circumstances and the photographer's workflow/preference.

    One of the points I tried to make in the video is you can do whatever you would like, shoot however you would like but in my opinion I feel RAW is the best most logical setting to use. I will continue to stress the fundamentals of photography over everything including RAW. Like I said in the video, I don't care if a beginner shoots JPEG as long as they are out there shooting and learning. And sure, pros can do as they wish but i've run into very few "pros" who actually only shoot jpeg.

    There's no point in shooting RAW+Large JPG unless you need the JPG before you can get back to your computer. Most of the time, RAW conversion software will allow you to convert the RAW with default settings if you need the large JPG to go with the other files.

    I've always saved both RAW and JPEG images to my cards. More than once, my bacon has been saved because I had the RAW file to salvage a blown image. Another interesting aspect for me, has been that when Adobe comes out with updated and improved RAW processors in Photoshop, I can go back to my old RAW files and re-process with the new technology and it's often noticably improved. If I pull up an old JPEG, there is only so much I can do with the image, even though the new Photoshop CC 2018 has a RAW processor built in for JPEG editing? Not even close to having the RAW data to draw upon. I buy the best gear I can find, use the fastest cards that have pro quality and dependability and back everything up for future use. I kick myself when someone askes for an image from 2007, I pull it up and it's a JPEG... but then I was only using 8gb CF cards then, but could have given them something so much better if it had been RAW. I did watch Tony's explanation regarding how many camera owners don't have the money for larger capacity cards etc... I'm always looking at these issues from the professional working photographer vantage point and often forget that many hobbyists are looking for the least expensive options. Both have good points. Thanks Jared! RAW is my safety net.

    Exactly this!!! I am a hobbyist, and in the beginning I saved both RAW + JPEG to my SD card, because 64 GB SD cards are not that expensive anymore. When I learned to use Photoshop, I imported the old RAW files and tried to fix them (I learned a lot from this as well). Now I only shoot RAW. Quick editing is not an issue anymore with how easy Lightroom is for bulk editing. And if the image doesn't need editing (because the exposure is perfect), then just do a bulk export to JPEG from Lightroom. If an image is not perfect and needs more attention, but it's the only image you have of that very important subject, just drag it into Photoshop to fix it (you can't do this with JPEG). The only time I use JPEG is when I take a picture with my phone.

I have pictures that could have been so much better. White balance is almost impossible to salvage on old jpgs for instance. Luckily now we are finally at the point with AI processing, so I have gotten some stuff improved due to that, but still the Raws are indispensable.

I agree with your stance that raw is superior, Jared, but approaching a debate with that mentality is quite immature. It isn't a trial, lol, if Tony acknowledges the benefits of each format this should bring you some satisfaction, and not act like that's yet one more thing to criticize about Tony's video. It's contradictory for you to bash him (correctly) for preferring JPEG, then bash him for noting RAW's benefits. Sounds like you just want an excuse to bash him, even if he agrees with some of your points!

    In reality a huge number of sports shooters shoot JPEG (only) as those under pressure to get images out just don't have time to edit during or after a game and picture editors couldn't care less so long as the image fits the brief and is good enough to publish and arrives on their desk quickly. That's the reality of the editorial market in 2017 although I appreciate it might not fit with you're personal style of shooting and what your channel is trying to promote.

Technical brilliance is simply less important to them than one should think and they are much easier to please than somebody who really knows what to watch out for in a picture. And if these people are paying you money for pictures and also expect them to be delivered fast then you just can't expect them to have the patience for a bit of delay even though it might result in better pictures.

Went Iceland lastweek with the family and shot in jpeg, got amazing shots that didn't need further editing, they are being viewed at home and put up on Instagram and not much else - again time and a place.

Most news people that have to deliver the breaking news will shoot in anything that will get the content the soonest to the media team. I cover trade shows and events worldwide and I do most of my processing in camera just to download the best quality possible and get that post sent over to our social media Dept almost instantly. I got the A9 and I’m super happy. I do shoot raw for my personal photography but capture that fraction of a second image and getting my files faster across the globe in a better quality than my iPhone is more important than the file format I choose to shoot at.

    FK, I got the G9 after 10 years of Canon and it has chenged the way I do things. The features on this thing matter - they open up loads of possibilities. The G9 has changed the way I think about choosing to shoot raw/jpg. I recently did a big trip and I shot both. I like making artistic style/processing decisions in-camera, but then lightroom "cancels" those decisions when it loads the raw files - the JPGs preserve those decisions. I'm becoming less and less concerned about keeping RAWs (incase I want to seriously bend an image our of shape) and incurring the overhead that RAW brings with it. As I mature as a photographer, I want my process to be leaner. Now with the way modern cameras like the G9 give you more in-camera processing options, I like to take advantage of that and not pile up a backlog of work for me in lightroom. These decisions are all subjective, but I feel like I'm moving forward by relying less on big fat raw files to fix my in-the-field decisions.

    After watching Tony Northrup's recent reply to this video, I have to say I'm more than a little disappointed in Jared Polin for insisting that the only way he'll respond to Tony Northrup is if they create a "collaboration" video. And by telling Tony that it was guaranteed to "get a lot of views", this tells me that Jared is more interested in his own popularity and monetization, than he is in being an adult and responding to disputes the way normal, civilized people resolve thorny matters. Instead, it seems he's more interested in the circus-like atmosphere he's created. Hey, Jared, guess what, dude? There's more to life than grandstanding and being a clown with a big hairdo. You went way over the line in your criticisms, by attacking Tony Northrup personally. And when he asks you to be mature and respond on a point-by-point basis, you say you'll only do it if you have an audience. Once again, score one for Tony Northrup for being a very classy individual, and handling things like a true professional. And strike two for Jared, who - despite making some decent points in the body of his video - still ends up using a Straw Man argument, (after all, Northrup points out that the MAJORITY of his shots still are, and have always been, RAW), while Jared ends up looking about as classy as a Rodeo Clown. I actually didn't believe the people who were accusing you of invoking Tony Northrup's name as clickbait. But after seeing that you won't be grown-up enough to respond to his video unless you can profit from it monetarily, and "get lots of views", it tells me that you probably really are the goofy, adolescent you play in your RAW Talk videos. I thought it was mostly an act, but now I'm suspecting that may be your actual state of arrested development. And hopefully, by the time Mom's recessive gene kicks in, and your Male Pattern Baldness forces you to change your name to "Middle Aged Balding Jewish Guy Knows Photo", you will have learned a thing or two about showing some class to others, even if you don't get paid for it, and you can't mug for the camera as you are doing it. But for now, Jared, its: HASHTAG: Big Freakin' Baby.

    Hey Jared, I have been struggling with the way I should be shooting. I shoot a jpeg with cine style as the picture profile for a flat image that I can edit in post and they turn out pretty good. The thing I am wondering is that it seems as if cine style is a lot more flat with a lot less saturation than raw. Should I still be shooting raw instead of jpeg with cine style? What are the pros here if the jpeg pictures with cine style seem more flat than raw? Is the dynamic range in raw still higher than cine style jpegs even though the jpegs seem much more flat in post? I have been struggling for months trying to figure which of these I should shoot in. I understand that cine style is mainly for film rather than photography but I have looking to shoot in the flattest profile that will give me the most dynamic range with the least amount of grain. Thank you for your time!

    You can always convert RAW into JPG. If the RAW image is more flat than the cine style jpegs, that's because of your settings. You can always boost the saturation and contrast if you really want to, but in general, people tend to over saturate images because it makes them more immediately appealing, even if it detracts from other elements of the image.

    Agreed. Just because Tony says not every picture has to be perfect doesn't mean he's advocating for throwing out the baby with the bathwater and saying that the picture quality doesn't matter. That's a "slippery slope" argument most high-school debaters realize is fallacious and it surprises me that Jared makes that argument. It seems Jared believes he has to disagree with everything in Tony's video. Jared criticizes Tony's preference for JPEG, but also criticizes Tony's acknowledgement that RAW has many benefits? Does he just want to disagree with EVERYTHING in Tony's video just because he disagrees with the overall premise? Being unwilling to acknowledge anything in Tony's video seems quite clickbaity and immature.

    Why not just have your camera take both? Is there a disadvantage to doing that? I have been doing that for some time and it seems to work out well. The biggest issue seems to be the time spent separating file types. Generally, I will just work and post the jpegs up to Facebook. If there is something that I want for myself, I just work with the raw file. Just throwing that out there for what it's worth.

    Saying that you can always nail the exposure when you get better seems kind of bs to me. People will always make mistakes, shit happens. And if you don't have variable ND filters, sometimes it might not even be possible to get both the exposure of ground level and the sky right: either your sky will be blown out or your ground too dark. With raw you can often keep both. Totally agree with Jared's points on this one.

    Sort of. With more experience, you tend to under-expose a bit, and know what to expect in terms of blown highlights. Also, in many types of photography, you'll have the ability to look at the histogram to see that the exposure was right. Obviously, that's not always the case, especially in areas like sports photography.

    Jared, I don't care what some guy at Sony told you about shooting uncompressed RAW but it is NOT necessary to do so in order to save all of the data in the image! It's just plain wrong!!!! Lossless compressed has all of the data in it. Please show an example of an image that was shot in compressed lossless that fell short off an uncompressed one. It's all your call of course but there is no reason to do this. You didn't really convince me to shoot uncompressed because you told some anecdotal story by a guy at Sony that might be connected to their R&D department. Sorry, but I've worked in IS for 20 years and know that lossless compressed == lossless uncompressed.

    Certainly on Nikon lossless is just that, lossless. In theory you could take a compressed NEF and turn that into a bit for bit identical uncompressed NEF with the correct algorithm. No software engineer would call something lossless if there is a loss of some data, if you did it would be lossy, when you zip up a Word document and then unzip it again you don't expect it to suddenly have a few spelling mistakes. You can enable compression on many file systems, I would expect cloud providers already use such compression, you backups are probably compressed right now but when you download them again you expect them to be the exact same file you uploaded.

    Yeah, but even if you're bad with computer graphics, most cameras ship with software that can convert the RAW file using the metadata to give you a better quality shot than the jpg coming out of the camera directly. Computers just have more RAM and processing power to run better algorithms than cameras do. And you can do the same photo several times with different amounts of noise reduction applied without being any sort of technical genius.

After all, most of us actually do have a life outside of the world of photography.

  • @professionalvideos
    @professionalvideos6 жыл бұрын

    Jared, there's an old expression: "Don't shit where you eat." And that's exactly what you, in your foolishness, just did. And it's going to come back to haunt you for a long time to come. Allow me to explain: First, let me say, I happen to like both you AND Tony & Chelsea Northrup a lot. And, apparently, so do many of your viewers, because they obviously watch both channels. So, I'm not talking to someone I despise, and sticking up for someone I love. Because I love you both, and I think both channels offer tremendous insight, (and entertainment), from differing perspectives. However, having said that, let me comment on one thing only: How you treated a colleague in the business. I won't comment at all on the merits of your argument or his; I don't really care, and, truth be told, you two are not really as far apart as your video might suggest. (Because I guarantee that Tony Northrup could easily have played Devil's Advocate in his own video, and raised every single point you make here in yours.) What needs to be addressed is how young people often do stupid things in brash arrogance, and they end up looking back and wishing they had used a more moderate tone, years later. Instead, what you did was to create a needless rivalry, because Tony's video merely said, (in the title), "Why I started shooting jpg more". He didn't say he shoots it exclusively, and that everyone else should, too. He just said that he doesn't always need the extra latitude that RAW gives, because he nails the shot in camera. And feeling you've nailed the exposure is really a matter of personal preference. That seems like a fairly reasonable statement; he shoots JPEG a little more than he used to. And I guarantee that you will now be asked to comment on LOTS of other videos. (Both theirs and others.) And if you don't, you'll be accused of being weak, or in bed with them, or whatever. For one thing, who gives a rip that you've been getting a lot of people asking you to comment on somebody else's video? That's a recipe for potential disaster right there, because there's really not much of an upside for you, and PLENTY of possible downside. You could simply have a policy saying, "I don't comment on other people's videos. There are others who can defend or critique those videos; I concentrate on making this channel the best it can be." BOOM! Period! That's all you had to say. But, instead, you chose to not only attack the ideas that Tony Northrup was conveying, but also, (by strong inference), the man himself. You used incendiary words like, "confusing", [implication? Tony Northrup is a very confused person], and "flip-flopping", [Tony Northrup is unstable!], and that he uses and "old, stupid argument". [Translation? Tony is an old, stupid guy. After all, why else would he use such an argument?] You also started off basically calling him a LIAR. He said that it took 24 hours to import his RAW files, and without contacting him to find out the specifics, you said "I just can't buy that! I think that is exaggerating quite a lot!" Translation? You can't trust that Tony Northrup! That guy is just a flat-out liar. At best, he'll inflate his numbers wildly, just to make an otherwise bogus point." Did you call him and say, "Hey, Tony, this is Jared Polin. I keep getting people asking me to comment on your new video. Could you explain why it took almost a full day to upload your photos into Lightroom? Because that seems so weird. I'm usually able to upload even massive numbers of RAW files pretty darn quickly. And is that common for you, or was it an anomaly?" Who knows? He might have said he was using a laptop from 1995, or that he had 60,000 files to convert. But to imply he's "exaggerating quite a lot" is probably something you should verify first, before making that claim. Wouldn't you want him to do the same for you? In regard to storage space, you said, "Come on, Tony!It's not 1996. Ken Rockwell just sent me a two-way page, and he wants his argument back!" So, once again, the implication is that Tony is a dummy compared to you, and that he's living in the land of antiques. (And yet, somehow, his channel manages to have nearly 150,000 more subscribers than you do.) The fact is, that was a totally unnecessary dig at him, and was only intended to make him look foolish. - Which is fine, by the way, if person you're mocking really is an old relic, or if they are an egotistical blowhard. But Tony Northrup is neither of those things. he strikes me as a pretty down-to-earth and humble guy. So, mocking the humble doesn't exactly make YOU look good. (And, news flash: The 1990's called and they want their overused and totally antiquated "So-and-so just called and they want their ______ back" joke returned ASAP. Because it's kind of ironic that you try to make him look old and outdated by using a joke that's old and outdated.) You claim he contradicts himself by saying that "RAW files are amazing", but then makes a case for shooting JPEG, too. Where's the contradiction? I shoot both JPEGs and RAW, depending on my needs. Some shoots are more "RAW-worthy" than others, and somethings, (like a kid's birthday party), may be fine for just JPEGs. It's not a contradiction to say good things about both JPEG and RAW. They both have their plusses and minuses. And even if some minuses, (like file size), aren't nearly as big of an issue as they used to be, it's still a factor. (And if you want to talk about "contradictions", watch one of your own videos where you lament the huge file sizes of RAW files when it comes to filling up a buffer on a new camera.) To say that, "If you're going to hold the shutter down for 10 seconds, you might as well shoot video", makes you sound very ignorant about the resolution of video vs. still shots. (Which I know you're not.) But just because YOU'D never shoot for 10 seconds straight, lots of people would -- especially wedding, sports and event photographers. They might like having ability to make a video from full-frame still photos. But the larger point here is not about specs. It's about making enemies unnecessarily, and making people look stupid, just because you disagree with them on a technical matter. Although I respect your background as someone who worked at a camera store, and who has an extensive knowledge of lenses and camera specs, I have to say that Tony Northrup is pretty much an uber-geek when it comes to the science and technology of cameras, light, lenses and computers. Which, in layman's terms, means he knows a helluva lot more than you do. (His background in software doesn't hurt, either.) So for you to paint him as some sort of out-dated relic who just doesn't understand the basics about technology makes YOU look like a dummy, because you obviously don't know that this guy could drink you under the table, technology-wise. There's no need to mock him, just because you disagree. And even less reason, when he is more like a PhD. and you're a snarky college sophomore, when it comes to camera technology. That's not meant as an insult to you; it's just a fact. That guy is a major whiz kid in regard to technology. (And it only takes watching a few episodes of "Photo News Fix" to see that you're not.) Here's the thing, Jared: you're going to be running into Tony Northrup and his wife 4 or 5 times a year at various photo events, and now - because of you - it's always going to be awkward. You could have simply commented on his viewpoint, but instead, you chose to make him look like an out-dated ignoramus, and pretty much of a liar, too. Not especially smart, if you're going to have to run into him at numerous events for years to come. And what did you get out of it? Right now, your video has about 500 views, which means you've made, what? Probably less than 5 dollars for your video. There's not a lot of upside for you, but because you now crapped at the same table where you must eat, the downside is lots of unnecessary bad feelings and awkwardness for years to come. Again, you not only challenged his ideas, (totally fine), you went after the man - as if he's a liar and a fool. When the reality is, he's probably significantly smarter than you in the very realm you attacked him. You're a pretty smart guy; he's just smarter. So, in the end, it doesn't make you look good. It reminds me of the scene in the Norm MacDonald movie where he is hanging out the window of a car, as it drives by a line of people at a movie theater, and he mocks them and calls them idiots. And then all of a sudden, the driver pulls over, and parks in front of those same people. Pretty awkward. You'd be smarter to use the strategy used by people at the pinnacle of their profession, (like Rush Limbaugh), who never engage in rivalries, and never comment on the competition. They concentrate on building their brands, and leave the smack-talk for people much farther down the food chain. Instead, you make this sound both petty and personal. (As in your pinned question, "Such a strange bunch of contradicting statements in his video, do you agree?") This is definitely not your most shining moment, Jared. You took what could have been a mere technical debate, and used it to try to humiliate and belittle someone more successful than you. And that rarely makes anyone look classy or at the peak of their profession. It comes off as mere professional jealousy.

    It's not that Simple Correcting a "mess up" is only one of the many benefits of shooting raw. If there are subtle Hue, WB, Tint, and Dynamic Range adjust that are needed to take a photo from "good" to "great" shooting raw allows you to do that while producing less digital noise and compression artifact resulting in a better image. These things (other than WB) are aspects of photography you can't easily adjust on the fly and must be done in post.

    Jared you are so correct on your comments on Raw vs Jpg. When I started YES I used Raw+Jpg, and actually even today I still do the same...

    Totally agree with you Jared. Only observation is learning Lightroom CC 2021 (not Classic) is so simple to learn now, I'd suggest anyone should go try editing and learn at the same time as learning their camera and photography in general 😊📸.
