You can still use whatever Lab module you want with those RGB tools. Also, pushing the luminance in Lab doesn’t hold its promises to keep the chrominance as-is, you will witness weird desaturations with muddy blue colour shifts. The main drawback of the Lab modules is their usable range of settings is quite small, and you get ugly results real fast when you push the settings a bit far, which means bad model. It is advised to use them together because they form a consistent set of tools intended to work together. it is possible to reproduce any kind of optical filter effect in a physically-accurate way, with minimum side-effects no matter the intensity of the adjustment.Īs a consequence, the linear RGB tools allow you to affect separately the luminance and the chrominance, so editings become more predictable.blurs applied in it don’t produce halos, which means the blending masks softening will behave flawlessly,.Scene-linear RGB has 2 wonderful properties : Tone equalizer, filmic, colour balance, RGB curves and RGB levels are modules using scene-linear RGB encoding to apply transfer functions to your picture, while most of the darktable’s pipe uses Lab. It is an instrument to let you express your visual creativity. If this is what you think, what you are looking for is photography for the masses, and that market is covered by Kodak disposable film cameras, iPhones and Fuji OOC JPEGS. It takes 10-15 years to train a musician, 5-10 years to train a painter, you want to be a photographer in what, 15 s. Just because computers are involved and technics are hidden under a GUI doesn’t mean you can spare yourself the learning curve. I don’t know where the assumption that photography should be easy come from. Just put your hands on the instrument and you should have a good sounding Paganini as a starting point. In my opinion, playing the violin should be easy. Just open your photo and you should have good looking image as a starting point. In my opinion it should be easy to get a good result using dt. Likewise if you choose to use the base curve should you then avoid the new tone equalizer etc? But what about the “jungle” of the many, many other dt modules? Which modules should be avoided? It would be nice to know more about this.įilmic is designed to work with color balance, the new tone equalizer, rgb curve and the rgb levels modules. Maybe you should be able to select to auto apply the base curve, filmic or the basic tool in the preferences depending on which workflow you prefer.įrom the release notes I understand that some modules should be used and others not depending on which way you choose. You have to manually apply the basic module in auto mode to get something good looking. using the new basic module to do simple editing should you then turn off the base curve in the preferences? If yes, once more you get a dull looking image. How do you do sharpening in the filmic way? You have to manually turn on filmic in auto mode and sharpen the image. When you open your photo you get a dull looking image. If you choose the filmic way (which apparently is the way of the future) you are advised to disable the base curve and sharpen in the preferences. ![]() Now you automatically get a good looking image every time you open a photo. ![]() If you choose the base curve way you can select auto-apply base curve and sharpen in the preferences. And it should be easy to choose appropriate modules for further editing. Reading the release notes and watching the video(s), it seems that you are advised to use dt in one of 3 ways: the base curve way, the filmic rgb way or the basic way. First of all, congratulations on a very impressive release and thank you for all the work and efforts that has been put into this huge release.
