JPEG is just fine
( - 4/15/05)I have owned Pentax SLR's in the past and when digital came along I bought Canon..still own G3.
Glad Pentax brought out istDS! I love it, and the JPEG pictures are great contrary to some others opinions. I just entered one of my JPEG flower pictures in local contest and won first place. RAW is great also, but takes up too much of SD card. If JPEG need tuning up, just use a Photoshop Elements 3.0 to really make the print or image shine.
