Can this camera shoot in RAW?

No. at least not the one that I have, which I bought ~5 years ago. Not sure if it's been changed or updated since then.

if you can work in that format the problem is that the camera is not waterproof because the O-rings are due and water percolates quickly

You'll get a bit better dynamic range shooting RAW; however, it is not a leaps and bounds-like improvement over jpeg. Essentially, any RAW improvement is negligible which makes the camera primarily a jpeg shooter.

No. You have to buy a card. The internal memory of the camera is pretty small.

Your tablet isn't going to "try" to convert the raw files. However, you can get an app for the tablet like DSLRController that will allow you to control the camera and view images off of the card.

I would assume you could. I can shoot in full daylight with my little Sony, in NighShot mode, with a 720nm, near infrared, filter in place. I can't see through the filter but the camera can, and with the filter in place they are truly IR images. The images are really quite pretty, the sky goes black and the foliage goes white. Having said all this Paul is correct, you can't get thermal from this camera.

no it doesn't save files in RAW, . It uses the formats, JPEG for pictures files, wav audio, then when filming it saves the files as, MOV. H.264 /mpeg-4 AVC.and for audio stereo it saves the audio as LPCM.

Out of the box, no. However, you can load CHDK, which is a third party firmware build that utilizes many features the camera is technically capable of, but that Canon did not build into an official firmware, including RAW format. This is the most recent generation of cameras that are CHDK compatible. http://lifehacker.com/387380/turn-your-point-and-shoot-into-a-super-camera

I do not believe that it does. Canon DPP is proprietary to Canon cameras. Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop does work with Sony RAW files. You may wish to try one of these out. They are very powerful. Most photographers that I know prefer the Adobe solutions. You can try them out at www.adobe.com to see if you like them. If you hurry you might still be able to get in on the $9.95 per month Photoshop/Lightroom deal. I think it is a killer deal.

yes it is better and there is the Magic Lantern firmware ( non official ) that lets you shoot RAW video at much higher bit-rate and resolution ( it can rival cameras like the 60D 7D and even some high end professional video cameras.

YES! There are multiple ways to shot: Fine, Standard, RAW, Fine + RAW, Standard + RAW etc. I highly recommend this camera!

Yes you can....but depth od field is so.critcal when doing Macro photgraphy that I would not use it. But yes the camera works as always.

No. The internal storage is really small also, so in order to have use of the camera make sure you buy one or already have one.

I don't believe so. The camera has only one output- the USB thumb drive. Any real time capture from that would likely cost many times the value of the camera.

In my opinion, yes. Use a flash. This camera works so well that I gave my Nikon dsr to my son.

I have no clue what a raw image might be; however I am very pleased with the digital images that nI have taken with the Olympus.Gary11 March 2014

I have not tried that as yet. But if it doesn't have that feature, that would be a poor reason not to purchase the camera. I take crisp clear photos with it every time I use it. I wouldn't trade it for anything else unless Sony came up with a better model.

my understanding is it does not- and I wish it did- I wonder if a firmware update might make this possible? And just how likely such an update is? My gut says no, but i'm willing to bet they could sell a lot more of them if the unit did shoot raw. Perfect world, it would shoot Jpeg, RAW, and Jpeg+Raw. If it did, that would make me 100% more likely to buy one, as it is, I am waiting to see a few hands-on reviews before I commit to one.
