So? People should use whatever tools get them the results they want.

Even Photoshop. (Is this some sort of trick question?)

The nature of this post (subject alone) is inherently trollish. It shows
your lack of photography experience.

Hi!

http://www.apple.com/pro/photo/majoli/
http://www.olympusamerica.com/cpg_se...majoli_bio.asp

The nature of this post (subject alone) is inherently trollish. It shows
your lack of photography experience.


Without judging the intend of the original post, let me say:

* The story behind the first link (evenso promotional for a Olympus) is
interesting and OT.
* It goes to show, that small digital cameras today are absolutely
capable of producing press-level quality image material. Having sayed
this, I have my doubts for the 8 bit + jpg limitations in the dark
areas, but...
* It also goes to show that different approaches to photography require
different equipment.
* Some of the shots clearly rely on action or situation more than on
image quality. Some example shots, however, are low-light situations in
apparent good qulaity. A small digicam would not render them in the way
they appear on the linked sites (but likely over-expose them). So if
these pics are from a consumer-level small camera, there is serious
"photoshopping" going on.

my 2 cents,
B.

I'm guessing you're meaning editing to create a "fake" photograph...
if so then depending on the context and usage, yes... if presented as
a real un-edited un-doctored photograph, then no (obviously I'd not
including things such as croping/colour/levels as not allowed.) it
should contain only thoes artificats as were present in the original
view finder on that one single shot.
