Chris:
"Small" is relative. I simply set the camera up that way, with no further
thought. I obviously figured that this choice would "save space". Anyway, it
seemed like a good idea at the time. As I'm a bit lazy by nature, I figured
that "large/fine" JPEGs would be sufficient if I didn't want to take the time
to play with the RAW files. I actually shoot RAW+JPEG. I did look at a couple
of RAW files through Viewer (and quickly PE/ACR and Photoninja). The default
"development" setting for Viewer gives, what appear to me, results identical to
the OOC JPEG. Need to do some more research.
Interestingly, one of the other people on the shoot linked to me through Flikr.
He was using an EOS 60D and zoom (no idea which). He posted a similar photo of
the sea horses carving.

interesting to compare the two (mine:

While the 60D appears to be an older camera, I think it targets roughly the
same level of photographer.

The reason I asked is that you wrote that you used medium jpegs to save space
(I think). And the superfine and RAW "Large" files aren't small at 11 and 17Mb
respectively (thanks, Chuck). But if you want the best results from your shiny
machine I suggest that you need to go for the largest and finest, if you are
going to use jpegs. If disk space is short you can always do a bit of
weeding, as it were. I'm a bit of a hoarder, when it comes to image files --
just in case I find a decent one later :-) -- but I go through the library
every so often and get rid of ones that I haven't used since taking the shots.
