Hey folks. I know this would be a tricky question to ask, but I'm doing it in this forum, which is one of the nicest forums I know of, so I hope I'm safe.
I've been looking through a lot of RX1 and RX1r photos on flickr, and while the technical rendering of the images looks darn impressive, I can't shake the impression that they also have a very sterile, clinical kind of look. I'm not sure if I can describe it much better. Some people complain that digital images look too clean and clinical compared with film; to me, many RX1 images are like the next level up of cleanness, if that makes sense. They make 'normal' digital images have the imperfection normally ascribed to film by comparison.
Does anyone else see it this way? Do you 'dirty up' your RX1 images to give them some more texture? I'm seeing this in many Sony A7 and A7r images, too.
