But why not try it? You have nothing to lose but your credit card information. Lightroom does not run on Linux, so I have never used it.
#Darktable presets import how to#
Maybe you could post some NEF and I'll send you an XMP file showing how to mimic the JPEG preview even with base curve module. You can obtain very similar (close to identical) results using either base curve or filmic, but would have to fiddle with color saturation etc. OK, but vendor base curve is the easy way.
Using either I can mimic the JPEG preview colors without too much trouble.Īre you setting "camera" or "camera neutral" in the white balance module? That would be my guess for why you're finding it difficult to mimic the out-of-camera JPEG.įilmic is a more-complicated alternative, as Dudeness posted. Darktable offers two base curves for Nikon. I guess from your postings that you are a Nikon shooter. I guess it is baked into the camera profiles that you can choose from. However, I am pretty sure, it applies a curve, wherever it is defined. Since darktable 3.2 you can set the scene-reffered workflow as the default starting point. įilmic basically replaces the base curve. You should get familiar to the "new" scene-referred RGB workflow. So the image can be edited starting with something already usable, for example, increasing exposure, or changing white balance - instead of having to worry about setting a curve, which is rather more complicated. When I see video tutorials of Lightroom, the unedited images look at least somewhat usable, as if a Base Curve has been applied to them.
I'm curious to know, does Lightroom apply a "Base Curve" (or the Lightroom equivalent) to an image as soon as it's imported? Is this a camera-specific curve, unlike with Darktable? Is this behind the scenes, unlike with Darktable? I'm thinking of purchasing 1 year of Lightroom. I've recently been trying to develop RAW's with Base Curve disabled, but I am finding it difficult to match the look of a RAW treated with a Base Curve of my own, using other modules. My logic was, if it's only a "Manufacturer-Like" Base Curve, I may as well make my own, as it's only Darktable's guess at what is designed for the camera. I've been setting my own custom Base Curve for each of my photos to achieve the most significant change in my photos. It seems it is not possible to set the Base Curve to the same as the camera does for the JPG - only a mimic. By default, Darktable will apply a "Manufacturer-Like" Base Curve to your RAW image.
