I've got a Fuji S7000 which has an optional RAW setting.
Haven't used it yet as on max resolution it wants 12 to 13Mb of memory.

What are the advantages of RAW over .jpg's ?

Thanks

In a few words, it's lossless format. Uncompressed picture format (instead
of JPEG's).
Pretty "heavy" files, useful especially for professionals.
Look at this as WAV against MP3, or VOB against AVI (DivX).

Cheers
