In-camera image enhancements?

This is a discussion on In-camera image enhancements? within the Post Processing Central forums, part of the Photography Information category; I was just wondering what everyone's thoughts are regarding in-camera editing features, e.g. vignette or distortion correction, straightening, fisheye, etc. ...

In-camera image enhancements? - 12-18-2009, 10:54 PM


I was just wondering what everyone's thoughts are regarding in-camera editing features, e.g. vignette or distortion correction, straightening, fisheye, etc. Do you use them at all? Are they just unnecessary bells and whistles? If you do use any, which ones?

Personally I've only briefly played with a few of these features but haven't found them all that useful, so I'm curious if anyone uses them regularly.

It depends; if I'm thinking about using something similar on a shot, sometimes I go ahead and use the in-camera version so I can see its interpretation. Since I'm shooting RAW+JPEG, I also have the jpeg of the camera's result to compare to while I'm tweaking the effect on the RAW later.

It's nice to be able to change my mind entirely in post, and keep the RAW without the effect. Most of the time I don't bother with the in-camera, though, since it takes a lot of button pushing to set it up.
