Do other cameras have built-in feature similar to "Color accent" scene in some Canon DCs?

images, just their dying-cat noises on every page on the internet.

So I keep my gun handy.


Do the rest of us a huge favor and shoot yourself with said handy gun. But
be sure to capture a series of your own amazingly well composed photographs
of the process so that those of us who remain behind can marvel at your
sheer artistic expressionism and lament the world's having lost such an
incredible talent!

No, I'm saying that people who have little or no talent for photography should
have their access to any photography equipment taken away from them and be
imprisoned for life if they ever have the audacity to want to show their
photography to anyone else.

What about the idiots who show no talent for putting their viewpoint
tactfully on usenet? I guess by your reckoning they should have their
connection taken away and all their posts removed from Usenet archives.

Sorry, but one of this sock puppy's alter egos has already said

If the last bit of above quoted wisdom is an additional example of Mr.
perfect's grasp of grammatical structure and Usenet etiquette then as was
stated by another respondent, the application of his own standards dictates
that his ability to afflict anyone with his opinions in any form should be
irreversibly circumvented. Off with his fingers, tongue and internet access!
Personally I believe the world would benefit most immensely from the strict
and rapid enactment of my originally posted solution to his dilemma.

At any rate, if one has no intention of sharing a photograph then it would
seem counter-intuitive to influence the image by using a camera and its
limitations to screw it up with reality! Simply compose and memorize the
image in the unadulterated condition in which it exists at the precise
moment an actual photographer would press the shutter release!

To the OP I say this, the fewer special effects one applies to permanently
alter an image at the time of capture (in camera) the more one can do (or
more appropriately the less one must undo) in post editing to correct and
enhance or otherwise save the usefulness of that image.

In other words the color accent etc. done in camera had better turn out to
be exactly what you were after, if it doesn't there may be no way to remove
or change the effect after the fact.
