How much time do you spend on post processing each image?

If you were to guess how long you spend on each photo during post, what would you say that time was?

2 minutes to a max of maybe 15 minutes for a problem image.

As little as possible but most times less than 4 minutes per. If it would take a long time, then the image wouldn't be valuable enough to save.

I have no idea. Couldn't even guess.  Don't care.

Depends on the image and what it's getting used for.  However if you are talking about typical post times for let's say, personal images, then no more than 10 minutes.  I have sequence I go through that I have used for some time.  So it's quick.

:agree:
Pretty much how I am. I think most of the time it takes the program to load up on my computer than what it takes to process an image. Now I know this will be blasphemy to some, but I do most of my settings in the camera. It is amazing how much you can do before you push the button now.

As long as the image needs.  Kind of like the others, I don't pay attention to exact time that is spent on post processing images.

As much time as it takes, never timed the process. 

Why so serious?

So depends on what the image is being used for.  On average I would say 10-15 minutes each.
