Surely you can achieve the same exposure effect as Super CCD SR by adjusting the balance and contrast in an editing program like Photoshop?
A. You can alter contrast and brightness in an editing program such as Photoshop, but you cannot retrieve detail that the camera has failed to capture. For instance, when a bright area on an image ‘burns out’, the detail cannot be retrieved, as the relevant photodiodes in that area have hit their relative maximum values.
