My sentiment exactly. I now shoot RAW and Jpeg 99.9% of the time. I view the Jpeg version to decide what to keep and cull. The only time I will switch to Jpeg only is when I am shooting very long bursts at high frame rate to avoid buffer overflow.

It took a few attempts before I became a RAW convert. What finally swung it was the huge improvement in recent years of RAW editors.
