It does have raw capture but there isn't really that much to improve on from the jpeg (perhaps a stop and a fraction). If I were to use it in bracketing, it slows own writing speed and the rapidness of exposures (as well as adding a significant processing step using RawTherapee). Someday, I...

Thanx. It's an combination of 3 different quick JPEG exposures (High Dynamic Range) of +2, 0, and -2 stops. My point-and-shoot Canon has a dedicated (bracketing) setting that does this. This overcomes the tendency of small sensors (and JPEG capture) to produce incomplete exposure of the...

Here's one from a recent trip.

Here's a couple I took about two years ago...with a cell phone.

Oh! Showing your age. That's been abandoned for years...but the Nordics (and I) still use the surroundings extensively.

Did you ski down the chutes?

Here's a panorama of the our Snowy Range several days ago (downsized from 60 megapixels)... PM me for link to full-rez file (12442 x 4762, 55MB jpeg) if you wish to print it.

A service test print from one of those printers will be a definitive answer..

...and from an 8 color i9900.

Good point, however that's not a service test print. Here's a sample from a six color i960 (from the service manual).

Ahhh...most Canon consumer photo printers do NOT have "different sized" nozzles for the same color. They are all the same size (Pigment Black nozzles are typically larger and fewer than color nozzles, but they are use for text/line graphics, only on plain paper). That said, some Canon inkjets...

Yes, the most common issue with Canon print heads appears to be some circuitry failure on the LSI nozzle die itself, probably due to overheating. That is why I always use "Night" or "Quite" mode in the print driver. It slows printing and limits the heat duty on the circuitry.

...but it's GREAT mustard!

The nozzles (on Canon Thermal heads) are NOT "metal". They are silicon. The nozzle "plate" is a LSI manufactured component. The bubble jet process "boils" the liquid "ink to "spit" it out the nozzle openning. Cavitation of the nozzles leads to wear.
