- Photos OK to edit
Most of the photos I see here on the Forum (even in the beginners sections) are processed via Photoshop etc. If you have a good DSLR and your photos are not processed is it considered that you have only half a photo? It seems odd that with the sophistication of the newer 'good' cameras and lenses, that the quality of the photos they produce are inadequate without post.
I need a new computer before I can have enough memory for photo processing. Living in the mountains, we have been evacuated about four times in the past ten years due to Forrest fires, and packing in a hurry is tough. A laptop would be ideal considering this, but from what I read here, a laptop is completely useless for processing photos because of the inadequate monitors (screens). I could get more memory for the laptop I'm using and be able to afford post, but a new desk top and monitor is a long way off money wise. I am an armature and a hobbyist and not intending to go into business or publish professionally, but would like to produce pictures that are good enough to post on the Forum and share with friends. Your thoughts?
Thanks as always, Tom Beard
