Ben, for me it is convenient to keep the jpegs with the raw files. First I review the jpegs as soon after downloading as possible. I often cull out way over half of what I shot. If I am shooting macro flowers, handheld, I might dump 70-80% immediately. When I look more carefully and try to decide on images to process, I again review the jpegs. If I decide to process, it seems convenient to have the raw adjacent to the jpeg file. When I finish processing, I keep the TIFF in the same folder so all three files are adjacent to each other. If I am not happy and try another processing version, I also keep that with the others to make comparisons easy. When I make a print, I make a copy of the processed TIFF and keep the second copy in my Qimage print files.
I am puzzled. Why would you want to separate raw and jpegs into separate folders?...Show more →
So I know what I have and where it is. I select images by the image not the name which is too small to read. If I want to work on a raw, I want to know where to find just RAWs. Besides, I have never shot jpgs since my very first digital a Nikon 990 accept for experiments so I don't have any habits for them.
But I am pretty sure I like them separated. I do all my culling in Breeze Browser. If I have them in the same folder, it shows the RAW and then the JPG sequentially (or the other way around) and is very confusing.
If I start shooting jpg, I may use my Mirrorless camera and ditch the 5DS R. My goal has always been large prints, but large prints and web posting are incompatible. But if I decided to take web posting seriously, an all jpg non calibrated workflow might be the way to go.
