Well, then it's a loaded question then: no, I did not say you MUST use
raw file or that a person cannot get it just right using nothing but
Photoshop.

Good for you that you can do that, and no, I won't argue that you
should switch to raw. If it works for you, it works for you. I use raw
for a number of reasons, and for myself only, JPG do not offer
advantages, but for others, their decisions may be different. It's not
wrong, it's different.

Remember, not everyone in the LUG is out to convert everyone else to
their One True Opinion :-)

The original question is about DNG, which is raw, which is why I said
what I said.
