Why do you think shooting in raw format would be better for capturing shades of green in the image?
Shooting in RAW not only gives me the freedom to adjust the colors you see, but also to adjust the colors you don’t see. Since RAW keeps all the data when an image is captured, you have much more leeway in adjusting images after the fact. The original photo was way too dark to be usable.
Why is shooting in RAW better?
Shooting RAW ensures you are capturing as many colors in an image as possible, creating photos with a higher color range and color depth. This is why a brightly colored landscape or a vibrant fashion scene with a range of shades and tones will likely turn out better if you shoot in RAW vs. JPEG.
Is shooting in raw better than JPEG?
A RAW image contains wider dynamic range and color gamut compared to a JPEG image. For highlight and shadow recovery when an image or parts of an image are underexposed or overexposed, a RAW image provides far better recovery potential compared to JPEG. Finer control and adjustment potential.
What does raw image mean?
A camera raw image file contains minimally processed data from the image sensor of either a digital camera, a motion picture film scanner, or other image scanner. Raw files are named so because they are not yet processed and therefore are not ready to be printed or edited with a bitmap graphics editor.
What is the advantage of raw images?
As an uncompressed format, RAW offers many notable advantages over a compressed file format like JPG. If the camera format is set to raw, no processing is applied, and therefore the file stores more tonal and color data. With more data stored in the file, there is more processing flexibility than a JPEG can offer.

What do I set ISO to?
As discussed above, you should always try to stick to the lowest ISO (base ISO) of your camera, which is typically ISO 100 or 200, whenever you can. If there is plenty of light, you are free to use a low ISO and minimize the appearance of noise as much as possible.
