How would you understand »in-camera RAW image development«?
usually you determine if you shoot RAW, JPEG or both.
Some new cameras offer the possibility to shoot RAW and get JPEGs
_after_ the shot by e.g. determining a picture style and do development
in camera.

ok. I may have overinterpreted some advertisement statements. I was not aware that these cameras offer in-camera RAW post-processing.

Coming back to my initial statement, the only thing that I wanted to say was that contrary to common belief the RAW files that you get out of your camera represent by no means plain raw sensor data. When a RAW file is written to the SD-card the image data already went from the sensor though several steps of the image processing pipeline, analog and digital. Although not all camera makers go so far to bake lens corrections into the RAW file.

I would never recommend to bake lens corrections into the RAW file (as it is possible with Sony) as a default procedure. However, the idea that one corrects some lens errors already in the camera in the RAW file appears less crazy when you realize that RAW files do to really represent raw data.
