it's not a matter of fun, it's a matter of quality. if all you want are
straight out of the camera JPG files for emailing, it's one thing. regularly
putting them up for other people to view needs some work. i'd even go so far
as to say if you aren't going to shoot RAW, there wasn't a need to go to a
DSLR in the first place.

Subject: Re: Shoot now, focus later
I meant no disparagement in my reply, Godfrey. I said "Lots of
post-processing is not fun (for me)" (note the "for me"). I spend enough
time in front of a computer already, and photography (even digital
photography) is a chance to do something mostly away from a computer.
Even
just the term "workflow", as discussed here a lot hints at the problem
(for
me) - it uses the word "work", rather than "fun" - <g>. However, for
those
that really love doing lotsa Photoshop processing, then I can see that
digital photography opens up a whole new avenue for fun for them (even if
not for me). YMMV...
