Sorry, Larry, but a big part of being a photographer is learning how to
edit.
A big part of being a photographer is knowing how to focus and set the
exposure of your camera, how many pros do you think still shoot everything
in full manual? I'm not looking for something that'll edit everything for
me, I'm looking for something that'll speed up one of the most time
consuming tasks, taking a pass through the photos, pixel peeping to see
which ones really are sharp enough to blow up.
A big part of being a technician is knowing how to set focus and exposure,
and is the easiest aspect of photography.
It's the quantifiable stuff.
This is why so many people bitch and whine when their lens isn't perfectly
sharp, or has some minor technical flaw.
They've found something they can quantify.
But it isn't photography.
Photography is about what you see and how you translate that into something
you can hold. Everything else is window dressing sent to distract us.
