Yes, the camera is stepped down a few stops to maintain the detail in the highlights of the clouds. Of course it also looks like its a slide film, which generally has a lower dynamic range than computer monitors.

the only game that i know of that simulates a lens view of the world is gran tourismo 5. and it does a bloody good job. we can not replicate lens effects in il2cod yet. hint hint. (this is 1 aspect thats part of the future of graphics)

the dev team should change the trees to a more darker variety. yes. i hope they will.

i would love to be part of there beta testers or feedback team with an russian and english speaking person. but i dont know if they organise like that.

lol for now i got me some cosmic green i must get rid off.
GT5 isn't the only game that simulates a camera lens, if you're talking about photo mode. And even then its not a simulation of the lens, but mostly post processing effect (Note: I'm assuming the DOF blur is using the z buffer) And games like crysis 2, UDK, ect are doing tons of things to mimic/fake the look of film. Anamorphic lens flair, color grading, color fringing, ect.
