[X4U] Aperature vs. Lightroom & Photoshop CS

[Jens Selvig]

When I first puchased my D70, I did a lot of jpg images because I  
didn't have any easy way to open the RAW formated files. I really  
regret that now! The shutter machanism in my D70 died at about 154,000  
images and I had to have it replaced. I think actually I got more  
exposures out of the camera than would be expected before a major  
failure.

I currently use CS3 and Camera RAW import 4.1 which is just a  
wonderful combination of power and ease of use.

The quality of the camera has  some affect on the image, but the  
quality of the photographer makes the image.
