Hi Matt, I was having a few images come up too dark but having uncheck the "compensate camera exposure" box gives Filmic a more expected behaviour. I am not sure why that option even exists as I expect that if I use EV comp on the camera, I want EV comp applied not removed.
Thanks for the tip. ________________________________ From: Matt Maguire <matthew.magu...@gmail.com> Sent: Thursday, 5 November 2020 2:15 PM To: David Vincent-Jones <david...@gmail.com> Cc: darktable forum <darktable-user@lists.darktable.org> Subject: Re: [darktable-user] Compensate camera exposure If I take a photo where I bumped up the exposure compensation dial +1EV on my camera to "expose the the right", then when I import the image, by default exposure module adds the +0.5EV exposure, and takes off the +1EV I added using the camera exposure dial, to give me a net -0.5EV exposure adjustment. If I uncheck the "compensate camera exposure" box, then the picture brightens up by +1EV, no longer compensating for that +1EV I dialled in to the camera when I took the shot. So, it all seems to work as expected. Do you see something different? How are you getting that automatic increment of +1.25EV? That's not in the code, so it must be an auto-apply preset you have defined. Did you have the "compensate camera exposure" box ticked when you defined the preset? If not, then the preset will not activate this compensation.

I have in addition checked the box for an adjustment based on "compensate camera exposure". These 2 EV adjustment should be cumulative but currently the second adjustment is not being applied. Anybody else seeing this?
