Photo Processing Debate simple survey

No.
Actually a conditional yes would be in order.
All post capture processing is done in my camera, which is why I shoot Olympus.
No post processing in the computer.
Stopped after using:
PSE up to version 8
Adobe Photoshop from Version 7 up through CS3
LightRoom 4 last program
No RAW or post processing in computer about 4 years now.
Olympus processing only at this point in time.
Please understand. I do Personal Computer Consulting for home and small business since 1987. I've done photography with a camera since the mid 60's.
Last thing I want to do is sit in front of a computer and attempt to do with a computer, what I can do with a camera.
Part of the reason I still shoot 50/50 film and digital.
Did all that RAW and PP for about 5 years. Just don't want to go there any more. The camera's are evolving to the point where flexibility in the camera produces a finished product.
So, do I post capture process... Yes and No. Not after it comes out of the camera.
Can you get it right in the camera... Some say no, and I do tend to agree with this fellow who says you Can NOT!

His qualifying criteria is "perfection", but he says you can get it "pretty damn close"......
PDC is fine with me.
