The second camera Nikon D800E is going to be my next. I was shooting the eclipse this weekend and wishing I had higher resolution & a longer lens but the medium density filters are difficult to get for large lenses.
Okay, I don't understand RAW…
It's supposed to be a format, right? Why does every single camera require separate support? That's not a format. That's thousands upon thousands of proprietary formats, none of which are compatible with one another.
I don't get it. Take a 15MP camera. Shoots in RAW. We know the resolution of 15MP, so every camera that can take 15MP RAW shots should be making the same file every time.

I can understand formats changing as technology improves, although I agree that RAW seems like a drama-queen among image formats.
I don't know if this update requires a reboot, but past RAW updates did and I'll never understand what that was about.

RAW is whatever the camera manufacturer saves their unprocessed image data as. It was never designed as a an ISO file format with standards. Photographers wanted access to the RAW image to do exposure correction before it was saved as a TIF or JPG mostly because it was 16 bits and the camera manufacturers complied. My first experience was with Nikon Capture back in early 2000s. Since that time everyone wanted RAW support but there was no standard so the application developers like Adobe were on the hook to provide it for their customers. Otherwise each camera manufacturer had their proprietary software that came with the camera for accessing the images. Most of that software ran really poorly especially on a Mac.
