I admit it is amazing what it does, especially in the saving of 
images of subjects outside the dynamic range of the picture taking 
system. 25 and 26 are amazing for creating a picture out of nothing.

My reaction was that some of the "befores" were much more pleasing 
than the "afters". Spy cam clarity at any cost is not always the best 
way to go.

My other reaction was the question, "Who is this for?"   If by some 
momentary lapse, mini-stroke, or fainting spell someone should 
produce one of the before pictures, most, on this list, would 
probably just toss it as they went through the pictures in their 
hospital bed.  Would you have really pushed the shutter button with 
25 or 26 in your viewfinder?
