Of course not Spacemonkey. For you to make this kind of statement if foolhardy. The reason efferent vision is so hard to conceive of is because you are trying to figure it out from the afferent model, as I've said before. You're trying to fit a square peg into a round hole, and it won't work.
I didn't make a statement. I asked a question. One based not upon the afferent model, but upon your responses. So please stop lying. The square peg is efferent vision, and the round hole is provided by your answers to my questions. Afferent vision doesn't even enter into it. I asked the above question because after agreeing that the light at the camera travelled there from the object being photographed (at a finite speed) YOU said this:

You said these things as an excuse for not answering this question:

If the object changes color after the light in question leaves its surface, but before that light reaches the camera (i.e. before the photograph is taken), can the frequency of that travelling light change while it is in transit (between the object and the camera) so that it continues to match the real-time color of the object?

Now that you've retracted those absurd claims you still need to answer this question. You've said that the frequency of the light at the camera (when the photograph is taken) determines the color of the photograph produced on the film. I want to know if that light, which previously travelled to get there, always had those same frequency properties or if those properties would have changed at some point during transit (so as to match any changes in the object occurring during that transit time).
