Is this maybe then analogous to the essential and accidental complexity premise that Fred Brooks put forwards? It may be that in painting the cost of accidental complexity can be reduced greatly but in photography due to necessary post-processing there is less on an opportunity. That doesn't mean there isn't an opportunity here. Being neither a photographer or painter I am most likely not the best person to comment however!
