I have a RAW question?
I finally figured it out and I now shoot only in RAW.
My question is this,
Is it better to have my camera set for just standard output and make my manipulations at the computer or should I manipulate at the camera and then also enhance at the computer.
I am talking about things like sharpness, saturation, hue, contrast, etc.

I tend to have my saturation, contrast "up one" in the camera for on-spot preview, but when in post processing I define my adjustments of course. So, I just use it as a quick preview, but always refine them in post processing. The power! of the RAW!!!!!!! gotta love it.

Are you talking about the picture styles in the camera menu?
They are not applied in raw format images. They are for jpeg output only and you may well see them on the camera's screen as it shows you a jpeg of the raw file.
The raw file is ALL of the information that hits the sensor. None of it is edited or had anything applied to it at all.
As for the creative aspect using ISO, Shutter and F/ you should be nailing that in camera. Your editing will be next to nothing if you are.

It doesn't matter.
The sharpness, saturation, contrast, etc.. adjustments on the camera are not applied to RAW files. You can still control all of those things in your RAW processor.

If you make raw files, this is my raw answer, handle them on your computer using the proper software. Raw pictures, as raw people become better with the proper treatment
