Reuters: photos must use compressed format to ‘reflect reality’
News agency Reuters will no longer accept photos shot in the RAW format, saying its freelancers are now required to submit JPEG photos shot in-camera. It told PetaPixel that it made the unusual move partly to speed up workflow, but also because RAW allows photographers to do too much image manipulation, and “our goal is not to artistically interpret the news,” according to a spokesman. It said it would only permit images made from the original JPEGs, provided they had just “minimal processing,” including cropping and level correction.
