[QUOTE="CircCam, post: 4403703, member: 85675"]Another analogy would be audio engineering. You can have world class microphones, preamps/consoles, the best AD/DA converters out there all being fed by the most talented musicians in a 3 million dollar acoustically treated space and there will still be post-processing applied 99% of the time in the mixing and mastering stages to convey the finest product to the end-listener. Nowadays usually too much processing (ETA- See Wiki: [URL='https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudness_war']Loudness War[/URL]), but even in the early days the vast majority of those classic albums still had subtle equalization applied at a minimum to balance everything. In numismatic photography and audio the same applies though- get it as good as you possibly can on the way in as the less post processing the better.[/QUOTE]
