Nothing worse than a pic that is
blown right out in the bright areas - totally useless and a guaranteed delete!
Raw is the only way to go.

In digital world, you can more easily recover info from the shadow, then highlights. Once the highlights are totally blown out, there's nothing there to rescue.

When you shoot Raw, you will have more flexibility.
