![]() ![]() No hurry - first I need to learn the commands, before I worry about presets.Useful when transforming files onto tablet), if unchecked directory structure is maintained as in Source Directory Narrow files into output directory - when checked all resulting files are copied into Export Directory without structure (e.g.Resize Mode - None or Long Edge, when Long Edge it is possible to set dimension of longer edge for shrinking image (image is not enlarged).JPEG Quality - JGEG quality of resulting file.List of RawTherapee presets - when Custom PP3 is not checked, it is possible to select built in RawTherapee preset that will be applied to all transformed files.Custom PP3 - if selected it is possible to select pp3 file that will be applied to all transformed files.It is designed for developing raw files from a broad range of digital cameras and targeted at users ranging from enthusiast newcomers who wish to broaden their understanding of how digital imaging works to professional photographers. (I used DarkTable before, but I've forgotten how to do things.)Īgain, if someone has created a Preset for a Leica M8.2, please post a link to it here. Eventually I'm sure it will become intuitive. ![]() I'm going to be watching the above video as I edit today's images from my M8.2 camera. I think I can do everything I need for my M8.2 dng images by editing in DarkTable. Also, I was going through all that work just to get the image into DxO PhotoLab, but I no longer see much point in doing so. DarkTable now seems like an infinitely better way to do this. (I won't be adding much more to that thread though, as it was started as way to get images from my M8.2 into DxO PhotoLab, including taking my 10 meg image from my M8.2 and converting it into a 80-meg TIFF file. To catch up to what I've been involved in, please go to this thread: 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. ![]()
