We could argue this point endlessly. When I used slide film, I depended on the automation that developed my Kodachrome to deliver what I had seen, and I learned what I needed to do in the field to get what I want; now I depend on automation in my camera to get me close, and then I decide whether a touch of level adjustment is needed. I used to sharpen also, but with the KP, I don't need that any more. All the knowledge I require of the machine is that it dependably do what it has always done in the past, and I will provide what it needs to get there.
