Me, an "expert"? Gack!!!! I'll be glad to post what I learn, as I learn it. At the end of the day it is a personal preference. I totally agree but 'your mileage may vary'. But who cares about sharpness ("it doesn't matter" according to Ken Rockwell). Pixel peeper prefer probably RT because the sharpness algorithm is much better in RT and ART. dt is in many ways a technically advanced app compared to RT or ART. I am truly convinced that dt is everything I ever need in pp. It took me about 2-3 weeks to get the same results as with RT. Very basic stuff in the beginning and after a while few other specific videos to get used to masks, layers and LUTs etc. The rest is trial and error. So I went the exhausting way to learn it by youtube and manual (RTFM). There are no quick wins with new apps if you really want to use it instead of simply applying presets. In the meantime I tried darktable (dt) once and while and moved finally to this dark horse of postprocessing tools for raw files. I'll get it done when the storm subsides. We are in a pretty big storm and service is marginal.
I guess I now need to find a video on how to use DarkTable, as I've forgotten what I knew about it a year ago - lack of use.Ĭurious - I like to add my own "watermark" on images - can DarkTable do that, or when I'm finished with editing, what is the best way to send my edited image to PhotoLab? (I installed the latest version of DarkTable a few days ago, but I can't find a tool within DarkTable to tell me which version I'm now using). Do I need to open an existing profile for images from my camera and my lens, or do I need to create a profile from them as I think you are suggesting up above? One of them is now open in my DarkTable screen. I opened DarkTable, got to view my folders, and selected a folder with eight image taken with my M8.2 and the new 7Artisans 35mm f/2 lens. The more pictures they get the better the profiles will be for us. I have uploaded pictures as directed for M8.2 and M240.
It will help to up[load images as instructed on the darktable home page for the coders to create camera profiles for our cameras.
I have a few other editors and GIMP and must settle on one of them.
