Re: [darktable-dev] release 4.2 is coming...
Hello All, I wish to express my profound appreciation of the great work all the mentioned ones and others do with Darktable. Darktable is an impressive piece of software, and it evolves to ever greater heights! It is far, far superior to the (unjustifiably) more renowned proprietary competitors like Lightroom, and a MAJOR advantage is that there is no such thing as Product Activation or a need for a subscription or connections in order to use the program as long as one wants. If I am to "criticize" the brilliant and hard-working independent software creators for something, it is the curious fact that it is rarely pointed out that Product Activation, subscription schemes and connection requirements introduce great vulnerabilities and destroys our freedom to use our own computers. Our data are never safe if a software company controls our software, and there is no freedom if the software needs activation, subscripions or permanent connections in order to be used. I am certain that many more would use Darktable and the various flavors of Linux if these points were made and disseminated much more widely to the public. Sincerely, Per Inge Oestmoen, Norway > Pascal Obry wrote: Hello! I'd like to take some time, while we are all waiting for the 4.2 release, to send you a little message about darktable. This release cycle has seen lot of improvements as previous releases. We had also some divergences with one developer and the signal sent was certainly not good or worrisome for some of you. Fact is that the team behind darktable is strong and working very hard in many aspects of the project. Some people gain more visibility because they work on GUI part that are directly visible by end-users. But there is also some people working on part of the code that you do not see directly but that makes darktable internal better. I'd like to thank Hanno Schwalm and Ralf Brown for their work on performances, tweaking OpenCL code path and OpenMP to use every cycles of your CPU. I'd like to thank Hanno Schwalm also for working on new highlight recovery algorithms. I'd like to thank Diederik ter Rahe for looking into Gtk issues and proposing a very impressive framework for shortcuts. And to achieve that, lot of code refactoring has been done. Some Gtk parts are looking like black magic to me :) I'd like to thank Roman Lebedev for the hard work in rawspeed. Without this project darktable won't be there. Also Miloš Komarčević working on rawspeed and many RAW formats support. I'd like to thank Victor Forsiuk for working on image input/output support and fixing a huge number of spelling typos. I'd like to thank Aldric Renaudin for the continued effort on the lighttable filters and UI. I'd like to thank Nicolas Auffray for taking over the UI effort and doing magic with CSS. I'd like to thank Bill Fergusson for maintaining the Lua framework. I'd like to thank rawfiner for checking noise profiles and making sure they are in good shape for integration. I'd like to thank Simone Gotti for working on a new lens correction method based on meta-data. I'd like to thank all the testers and reviewers (Chris Elston, Martin Straeten, parafin, Mark-64, and others) making sure we do not introduce more issues than we are fixing. Also thanks for Chris for reading my English in the RELEASE_NOTES and correcting it. I'd like to thank parafin and Bill Fergusson for creating the release binaries for MacOS and Windows. And Andreas Schneider as maintainer of the OBS platform for creating the GNU/Linux binaries. I'd like to thank Sakari Kapanen for helping with color science. I'd like to thank Jakob Andrén for the long journey at making Sigmoid a viable alternative to FilmicRGB. I'd like to thank all the translators bringing to us an interface in our native language. I won't name them, but also remember that darktable is Open Source and we leverage on many other Open Source projects/libraries (to handle Jpeg, TIFF, AVIF, HEIF, PNG... tether with camera, handle SVG, colors...). I'm even pretty sure that there is far more code in the dependencies we are using than in darktable itself. And finally I'd like to thank all people that I have forgotten in the list above. I'm sorry if I missed you. A darktable release is a huge amount of work and the darktable team is wonderful. I'm really happy to be part of it, let's the aventure continue.

Re: [darktable-dev] Adding a browser
Hello all. The inclusion of a browser in Darktable is neither necessary, nor desirable, nor feasible. That is reality. Darktable is truly brilliant. Per Inge Oestmoen, Norway > Lorenzo Fontanella wrote: Evening, I submit to you some considerations: DarkTable originated along the lines of Lightroom but with the purpose of remaining open source and making improvements over the same software from Adobe. Today the 2 softwares are almost alternative to each other. Using DT, I realize (and I'm always amazed) of some functions that other softwares dream of, I speak for example of the perspective correction module or of the color search table module that offers the possibility of selection in absolute values. However, this function is missing in DT as well as in Lightroom and for both of them, in my opinion, it is a reason to slow down the adoption of this software solution. I'm obviously talking about the lack of a browser integrated to the software that allows you to simply browse the folders of the HDD and open the images you want to edit. In this way you are bound to the import that if it must be done on many files at a time, slows down the whole process and discourages. I suggest adding a browser that allows you to browse the folders of the whole archive without having to import them. Once you have started to edit the file, obviously the development queue could be saved on sidecar files, if the modified images have not been imported. What do you think. For me it would be a double option that would facilitate the adoption of this great software by those who do not want to be forced to work with databases and forced imports.

Re: [darktable-dev] idea to consider
People who invest tens of thousands of dollars in high-quality cameras and lenses are served by a high-quality RAW converter that can convert to high-bit TIFF files. Darktable is such a converter. There is no compelling reason why we would focus our resources on .jpg conversion even if it were technically feasible. Per Inge Oestmoen, Norway > Chris Shelton wrote: Some photographers work in jpg only and sometimes I would not question their creative ability while maybe questioning the technical choice although I suppose they do avoid the mistake of overworking and gilding the lily I thought that the appeal of Darktable could be expanded to include people like this by having a facility whereby raw images are batch processed to create a set of jpg images in a similar way to the way jpg images are created by in-camera processing, maybe in the light table module; there would still be the option to work on a raw image as normal.

Hello Andreas, One more comment: The "riddle" with the white balance presets at https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable/pull/1680 has been solved: The various Fluorescent presets are subcategories under Fluorescent, and they are accessible through the menu on D850. Thus, these presets come in addition to those I have just registered and would therefore be desirable to include as well - as expected. Sincerely, Per Inge > Per Inge Oestmoen wrote: Hello again Andreas. I have now gone to https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable/pull/1680 as you suggested.

I think that cannot harm, but be aware that these are not included in the D850 white balance presets - which are the 8 ones I extracted. The 8 from the camera should be included first and foremost, since they are those that come with the D850. Then there are the different values, and why they are different. Here, we know that the firmwares were also different as mentioned.

Whereas my firmware is more recent, namely 1.02. But I also saw something else. On the D850, there are eight - 8 -predefined white balance presents. These are, in the following order: - Auto - Natural Light Auto - Incandescent - Fluorescent - Direct Sunlight - Flash - Cloudy - Shade These are all the presets that are on the D850. From these 8 presets, I got the following values listed in the same order for clarity: The Nikon D850 White Balance presets: (Firmware 1.02) Auto: { "NIKON", "D850", "Auto0", 0, { 1.30127, 1, 1.873047, 0 } }, Natural Light Auto: { "NIKON", "D850", "Natural Auto", 0, { 1.852051, 1, 1.375488, 0 } }, Incandescent: { "NIKON", "D850", "Incandescent", 0, { 1.205078, 1, 2.206543, 0 } }, Fluorescent: { "NIKON", "D850", "Cool WHT FL", 0, { 1.721191, 1, 2.064453, 0 } }, Direct Sunlight: { "NIKON", "D850", "Direct sunlight", 0, { 1.900391, 1, 1.375488, 0 } }, Flash: { "NIKON", "D850", "Flash", 0, { 2.164063, 1, 1.204102, 0 } }, Cloudy: { "NIKON", "D850", "Cloudy", 0, { 2.049805, 1, 1.244629, 0 } }, Shade: { "NIKON", "D850", "Shade", 0, { 2.396484, 1, 1.114258, 0 } }, Whereas, on https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable/pull/1680 I saw the following: Incandescent: { "Nikon", "D850", Incandescent , 0, { 1.205078125, 1, 2.206542969, 0 } }, CoolWhiteFluorescent: { "Nikon", "D850", CoolWhiteFluorescent , 0, { 1.721191406, 1, 2.064453125, 0 } }, DirectSunLight: { "Nikon", "D850", DirectSunlight , 0, { 1.900390625, 1, 1.375488281, 0 } } Flash: { "Nikon", "D850", Flash , 0, { 2.1640625, 1, 1.204101562, 0 } }, Cloudy: { "Nikon", "D850", Cloudy , 0, { 2.049804688, 1, 1.244628906, 0 } }, Shade: { "Nikon", "D850", Shade , 0, { 2.396484375, 1, 1.114257812, 0 } }, SodiumVaporFluorescent: { "Nikon", "D850", SodiumVaporFluorescent , 0, { 1.121582031, 1, 2.477050781, 0 } }, WarmWhiteFluorescent: { "Nikon", "D850", WarmWhiteFluorescent , 0, { 1.208496094, 1, 1.979003906, 0 } }, WhiteFluorescent: { "Nikon", "D850", WhiteFluorescent , 0, { 1.377929688, 1, 2.361328125, 0 } }, DayWhiteFluorescent: { "Nikon", "D850", DayWhiteFluorescent , 0, { 1.76953125, 1, 1.3984375, 0 } }, DaylightFluorescent: { "Nikon", "D850", DaylightFluorescent , 0, { 2.018066406, 1, 1.112304688, 0 } }, HighTempMercuryVaporFluorescent: { "Nikon", "D850", HighTempMercuryVaporFluorescent , 0, { 2.379882812, 1, 1.3671875, 0 } }, The results on https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable/pull/1680 are different from mine in a number of ways. There is no "Auto" white balance, which is crucially important. There also is no "Natural Light Auto", there is no plain "Fluorescent" but a number of different fluorescents which I presume are custom WB values. I think that cannot harm, but be aware that these are not included in the D850 white balance presets - which are the 8 ones I extracted. The 8 from the camera should be included first and foremost, since they are those that come with the D850. Then there are the different values, and why they are different. Here, we know that the firmwares were also different as mentioned. I put my RAW files (NEF) in the directory and used the perl script https://xor.cryptomilk.org/darktable/wb_extract.pl exactly as instructed. I hope I have managed to add to the clarification of the matter. Thank you so much for the attention, and do no hesitate to ask me if there are any questions.

Are there plans to include the white balance presets for the Nikon D850 soon? Do you need and want me to provide some RAW files in order to help you with the process? if you want them, you need to take a pictures and calculate them. I wanted to create a nice python script which can extract them, but exiv2 doesn't support it yet. However the developer promised to add support for it. In the meantime you can use a very old perl script. I've uploaded it here: https://xor.cryptomilk.org/darktable/wb_extract.pl It needs exiftool. You need to take a picture for every preset available and I've also created presets for the following Kelvin values: 2500K 3200K 4500K 5000K 5500K 6000K 6500K Put the RAW files in a directory and run the perl script from above. When shooting the pictures, note down which image number is which preset. Sometimes you don't find the name in the RAW. Cheers, Andreas -- Noise reduction is just another word for image destruction.
