Major bump!
I've taken to photography lately, not as a career, just as an artful expression. I'm interested in being "honest" in it, and using mainly the exposure and lense to compose the photo. I didn't really fully understand until recently however, how much digital cameras may enhance photos themselves without any other input, through colour profiles etc, but then I figure films do that too, Kodachrome, Fujifilm, etc each has their own subtleties. I could just choose a flat or neutral profile, but that often makes the picture less than what you saw. Then I learned it's pretty common to shoot flat or neutral raw files and tweak then to how you see fit, which I'm not against, but at some point it becomes an unbelievable image.
I realize it's a matter of opinion, and there's no right or wrong answer. Just wondering what different people think.
