I shoot jpegs exclusively (Canon). Mainly because I enjoy shooting the pics, and less so sitting in front of the Mac tweaking virtual knobs. I did my own tests with RAW and jpegs and for me the difference is negligible. I'm not into pixel peeping and I know I can produce work that I enjoy, to a level I am happy with and that's the only reason I shoot stills. If someone else likes it, well too bad! If I wanted to improve on the quality of a jpeg from a Canon 1D, I'd go buy a Sinar and shoot 5X4, not piss about with RAW files from a puny sensor.
