My experience is that people (including myself) are much more analytical about video and photo than they are when seeing in person. I notice every wrinkle and blemish in video, but do not perceive them IRL. In this way, I think the touch up feature is a more honest representation than having it off. It blunts the edge of my critical gaze and this reduces that distraction. In person I’m paying a lot more attention to the interaction and body language, and run out of time to eagle-eye the details. Am I alone in this?
