>>4018914The opportunity to make even subtle adjustments to an image is one of the biggest parts of photography. Just to use one of the most famous as an example, Ansel Adams is more notable as a master of the darkroom than a camera. If you buy any official contemporary print from the Ansel Adams gallery you're getting a print created by a photographer he trained. If you put me in a darkroom with one of his negatives I guarantee I'm not producing the same image they would have.
From what I can see here you need to be running much higher shutter speeds. You're shooting too slow because you're obsessed with making the camera make your final print. Screw getting it right in camera. Shoot raw and underexpose. Use your "darkroom" to bring it back. Then you get a sharp image that still "prints" as properly exposed. You're holding yourself back.
