's been going on for years AND they use Photoshop as well, the swines :>
One of the major manufacturers went VERY quiet about four years ago when I
started asking questions about the resolution of the sample image files that
they were distributing for a camera who's spec was a fraction of that of the
sample.
It reminds me of the video/data projectors sales/web bumpf where there's a
demonstrator on front of a front projection screen with NO shadow!!

Still pip-pip eh?
