Hello

I've been reading on the internet a lot of information from pro photographers and on various sites that talk about file sizes of around 60 megabyte for digital images. Can someone tell me how it is possible to take a picture with a file size this large? I thought that cameras made around 1mb per megapixel when shooting in RAW but I am obviously incorrect here.

Would be good if someone could explain this as its got me puzzled.

Cheers
TOny
