Takes no skill to fix things in Photoshop? Uh...... I
don't think so.  It's a great deal more complex than using
the camera where one's control of what goes on is very limited
(relatively).

However, if you mean in the sense that making a great realistic
2D photograph takes more skill than a great realistic 3D photograph
then I agree -- trying to do the same thing with less capable
tools takes more skill (assuming it can be done at all).

P.S. - Does using the computerized exposure mechanism in my
       RBT X3 camera cause problems too?  I've just gotten a
       computerized Jobo timer for my "darkroom" for home E6 
       processing. Reduces the skill needed to do the job 
       (using a wristwatch).  Problem?
