I took this section of a review done the the 14 from http://www.popphoto.com/cameras/4277/camera-test-sigma-sd14-raw-talent-page2.html
"At higher ISOs, the difference between JPEG and RAW files becomes painfully obvious. At ISO 400-800, RAW files are vastly superior to the JPEGs produced in the camera, most evident in shadows and darker-colored areas, which block up and get very noisy in JPEGs. In fact, by ISO 800, JPEGs made in-camera had such unusual colors and extreme shadow noise in multiple patches on our GretagMacBeth ColorChecker DC test target that we had to give them a thumbs-down -- even though the average color accuracy across all 180 patches tested Extremely High (8.5 Delta E), and noise in the neutral gray patch was Moderate (2.4)."
Please correct me if Im wrong. If I shoot with the jpeg format and shoot at high iso's such as the 400's and the high 800's I will be very disapointed. But If I shoot in RAW with 400-800 iso , noise wont be a problem. Right? Im sort of a slow person actully im sort of dyslexic, i just need clairfication. If your wondering, I useually spell check it in word before I post a reply lol.
