As an asside, I have started to shoot raw only and not have the jpeg at all. I have done this because on ballance I never even looked at the jpegs when I downloaded the files to my computer and just deleted them. As I prefer to make my jpegs from the finished tiff file I started to wonder why I used up card space shooting them side by side. That isn't for everyone though and if anyone can tell me why I should shoot jpegs too I would like to hear their argument.

Sharpening should really be the last job of the processing stage. My preferred way to sharpen for printing is to convert the image to Lab colour, sellect the Lightness channel and then Unsharp Mask to taste. Apparently, it is less destructive sharpening in this mode.
