Unlike film, the camera company now decides how your images look, by their
sensor characteristics and their processing algorithms. This applies even
when shooting in RAW. Sure you can adjust anything in photoshop, but even
the RAW data is processed in some ways... Try it and see. Get couple people
with a Canon and non-Canon (even Nikon say, or Olympus). TThe difference is
there if you compare it side by side.
