It's actually easy to see how it happened, however unfortunate it may
be. I think I was the first to respond, and I did answer Aaron's
question in brief and referred him to other sources. Godfrey answered
it in detail. I expressed surprise that Aaron was shooting jpegs.
However, I didn't know that he shoots only high volume in only one
venue with fast turnaround. Of course he didn't reveal that until many
had expressed surprise. Just a simple misunderstanding. No big deal.

I can't believe the comments Aaron is getting in this thread. The
original
question (which was not posed by Aaron and which has yet to be
acknowledged
or answered as far as I can see), was:
"What are some typical things you'd want to
do if you had a RAW file and you wanted to
make sure everything was okay before you
saved it in the other format? We know the
things the program can do, but we don't know
what a photographer would actually want to do."
That this simple question even got to the point where people started
questioning, and in some cases, judging, Aaron's decision to shoot
JPEG's
~in a specific situation~, is beyond my comprehension.

Why don't you recommend that your friend buy a copy of Real World
Camera
Raw and crib his paper from there. It is the book most of the folks on
the list learned from and it is only $25 from amazon.com.

Or do you REALLY never make an error with exposure?
Aaron replied:
The exposure has not changed inside the domed stadium in
recent memory. Perhaps one day they will change the lights.
But in the meantime, yes, I am pretty sure that I will not
make an error with exposure.
Why do people think this is even related to my question?
