NOTHING is legal, basically, after you have captured the image.
You download from camera, you resize, you sharpen. If necessary you rotate, but only in 90-degree increments. If you want B/W, you may achieve it by using your software's automatic, complete desaturation tool.
Basically anything you can do in-camera BEFORE making the exposure is legal; that's where you set your saturation, your sharpness, your contrast, your white balance, and so forth. If your camera supports such features as straight-to-B/W or straight-to-sepia, that's OK too.

There's actually a whole other thread on this where SC have been weighing in: //www.dpchallenge.com/forum.php?action=read&FORUM_THREAD_ID=530357
Probably best to seek your answers there, I am not a vested authority.

Right -- please continue in that thread.
No, you can't use anything except "Sharpen." |
