    Scott Kelbys book on processing raw files using Lightroom is brilliant, so easy to understand, a step by step guide, and available on amazon or ebay There is nothing to fear, and your pics will look so much better. My regret, I wish I'd known how to process raw files from the start.

    But you still want to get the best out of your images regardless of whether you're blowing them up or not. All the info is in the raw file, you can recover highlights get detail in your shadow area etc. You should always be shooting raw.
