Polaroid is the only true SOOC. Everything else is processed to some degree. The more appropriate term for digital might be "straight conversion from raw not processed" or SCFRNP.

Yes. I am new to this site 3-4 days. The one thing I have noticed is for some of the responders, just have to be plain nasty in some of their answers.

JPEG is far better than full frame, and you should always use a lens hood rather than a tripod.

Please, Gene, can you find an acronym that's a little easier on the tongue....? πŸ˜•

SOOC ,means straight out of camera. The picture has not been post processed, 'not cooked' in any way.
My personal preference. Too many times I see a really great photo, but it's integrity is destroyed by PP.

The camera captures the initial file in RAW. Anything past that is processed, whether in-camera or some application.

But there are only to pages so far. Maybe someone will have an idea that has never been presented.

Obviously, it means straight out of the camera. Take the picture, upload it to a computer, and there it is - straight out of the camera. No mystery. It doesn't matter what the camera does to it. If the camera did no processing, you'd have nothing but thousands of 1s and 0s.
