Eww that looks like the kind of thing you find in reddit's shitty HDR sub.

Yeah, it's completely backwards. I thought we were past Instagram filters, but now Kodak is trying to build it into their camera?

The after is too sharp, but I don't see a problem with applying filters to a photo. If it gives a nostaligc feel, so what?

It's not bad tone mapping, which is what most people think of when they think of shitty HDR. It's sharpening and increasing local contrast. This particular effect can also be created in Lightroom by pushing the "clarity" slider too far to the right.

Agreed, the "before" picture looks so much more natural.
