Texture is a visual ingredient just like color or form – and if you see it this way it's nothing strange adding it in post. Basically any analog method of visual reproduction adds some form of texture as a byproduct, but not digital screens. Yet think of a paper, it's the texture in the paper that makes it real, that it appears as something you can touch.


I agree and have no qualms about adding it either in post or by deliberately shooting high ISO to enhance the grain.
