Re: [darktable-user] A better starting-point for Nikon RAW-files

2016-08-10 Thread Johann Spies
View NX2 also runs on Apple.  As I do not have Windows, I have tried to do
the same on the Macbook, but I could not find the temporary files.  Does
somebody know where to find them on the Mac?

Hi,

I do not know MacOS, but the trick is to search for files named *.icm, 
and changed/modified within the last minutes. I am sure this is possible 
on a Mac, but don't know how! Good luck.

However with rawtherapee, the results is the same as with darktable and
the D7100 icm profile: the result is quite nice, but there is always a
light green tint.
