I’m contemplating switching to CRAW. I shot an 85gb party the other night.

As much as I love technology, I will never, EVER fully trust it. RAW backups to both cards for me. And on 2 occasions as a photographer (with previous systems, mind you), I'm very grateful I did the same!It appears that many folk don't have confidence in their card manufacturer!!
Makes a big difference in memory storage and I see nothing lost in doing so.I’m contemplating switching to CRAW. I shot an 85gb party the other night.
The only thing I’ve seen from reviews is some detail loss in highlights/shadows, but it looks so minor zero people would ever notice. Since I’ve gotten into photography it seems a lot of things such as- “CRAW loses some detail in shadows and highlights” comes from pixel peeping that isn’t remotely relevant to real world use/delivery/enjoyment. No one views an image at 1200-2400%.Makes a big difference in memory storage and I see nothing lost in doing so.
Depends on how much you need to pull up the shadows.The only thing I’ve seen from reviews is some detail loss in highlights/shadows, but it looks so minor zero people would ever notice.

I shot exclusively in CRAW yesterday. Going to see what they look like tonight.Depends on how much you need to pull up the shadows.
At ISO 100 across various apertures and shutter speeds to maintain proper exposure I found zero difference. I had a portion of photos in the shade that I thought the camera’s meter was under exposing, but I stuck with the meter for the purposes of this post. In post processing I did find the images to be a bit dark. I pulled some up as much as a stop with zero detail loss/lack of data. Photos look great. Next I’ll try to find some situations where I have to shoot above ISO 10,000 and see what those look like. (Note: I used zero noise reduction in post with my ISO 100 photos. I’m having a difficult time with my current install of Luminar Neo not showing Noiseless AI in the extensions. None of the photos warranted Topaz clean up. All had zero detectable noise at 100, as to be expected with the conditions I shot them in.)I shot exclusively in CRAW yesterday. Going to see what they look like tonight.
I find I run into a limitation with the regular lightroom plan for the cloud. Do you have a bigger plan?I take a handful of cards, Keep the backup cards (replace when full) and dump the CFe to a laptop daily running LR which uploads to the cloud and downloads automatically to my home desktop in LrC.

ps: I also have 1TB on the iPad Pro I use to backup in the field.
