Once you sell a .RAW or a .NEF file you don't own the rights to that picture.
I keep all of my .RAW files so that I can prove my ownership to any .JPG photo that I have made available.

yeah I know Weeds has a D90 so I think his photos will come in just under 10...

do you have a link or can you refer to something regarding that statement.
I would of personally thought that once you "Sell" a photo the likely hood is they would expect all rights.
the fact he is giving someone a COPY of the Nef file..his original would still be on his computer I would think he would be pretty safe.
EDIT: I just tried to look up the file size..you might be right Bushie as I think the D90 might put a raw file out at about 15mbs
Hi Dullbird
I have tried to get my head around this photo ownership thing and it's a bit beyond me I am afraid.
Here is a link to the University of Melbourne for you to look at that deals with the subject.

i have a D60
oh and not really concerned about ownership.......if somebody wants to any than all good
in that case weeds im sure you can fit them singularly in to an email. sometimes even two...
my hot mail will send 10mb per email I would expect most lower end service providers to be the same
thanks guys, still haven't had a chance to look though the menu…..i'm sue i had it turned on once
does everybody leave it turned on all the time ??
I have two cards in my D7000. On one card the image is saved as a JPG and the other card the image is saved as a NEF.
I would never send a raw/nef file, when I provide my images to a professional lab to print my work I do it in Tiff format to allow the lab to adjust curves and profiles to suit their hardware.
In some special cases I leave some of the layers open for the lab to adjust the image to their monitor.
In the images provided I put instructions in the metadata with restrictions, instructions and conditions of use.
Also (and it is very important for the USA laws) in the metadata I put my contact details.
Regarding the copyrights Australian laws copyright ownership it is by default to the author with some exceptions if the work the photographer is doing was as an employer of news paper or something similar.
Cheers
