If I shot for money I would shoot raw+jpg that way I could just spend time further editing some of the Raws I liked in depth.
Because I just shoot for a hobby I always only shoot raw. One easy reason, for me if I come away with a great photo, I sure as heck want it to be raw so I have the most headroom with processing possible.
Using a Nikon d800e the raw files are truly impressive the amount of shadows that can be pulled with little noise. Being an amature wildlife photographer that submits stock photography and ocasionally submitting for magazines, i find that raw gives me the ability to really push the files even when lighting situations are not ideal
