RE: Thinking About New Camera

An external Canon flash unit for the 5D III that is comparable to the built-in one in the D800 is less than U$D 100 if I am not mistaken... and they are both useless!

I used to work as a photographer, but now I do it strictly as hobby. I now have a Private Pilot License and I'm working my way to the CPL as I'd like to become an airline pilot. In the meantime, I am a Flight Attendant for AU (Austral Lineas Aereas).

RE: Can Someone Explain Pro/con Of RAW Editing?

I've never shot a single JPEG since I got my first DSLR, I see absolutely no disadvantages at all in shooting RAW. Of course it may be related to my shooting style and workflow, but I see no point in shooting JPEG.
