Darktable users forums11/9/2023 What exactly has Capture One to offer me more than no lens profiles? Is it possible to rename a lens name from 500mm to the right name Sigma 500mm f/4.5 APO EX HSM? DxO PureRAW that I use in a VirtualBox failed with that. One year subscription is less than one invoice. Subscription for photo software is not an issue. "Having used a wide variety of software with occasionally very bizarre user interfaces probably has made me jaded enough to be mostly comfortable with DT's UI."ĭarktable was the reason I moved to Linux from Windows. I think most users prefer to use the simpler and more elegant interfaces in commercial apps.Īs another poster who is in software development mentioned they were comfortable with the complex interface of DT because of their interests. It seems that Darktable may be the app for people who cannot or do not want to pay for more polished apps. If you got the time and patience it works well but needx more polish and useability. I would so much like to replace capture one with darktable but untill ut can match its tools, color and interface its a B option for me. This is a key point that i can match the output of capture one but its soo much harder to get there.Īnyway, once you have learnt thd complexities of darktable tools, workflow and interface znd have developed a dstyle for your photos then things get a bit easier. In capturevone i can use a simple shadows and highlights tool but in darktable i need to use more complex filmic, color balance and tone equalizer to match the result. Well i like to see if free options can match paid options and i like to tty improve mynprocessing and apps like darktable give me that alternative view.ĭarktable is capable of matching my capture one image quality but where darktable falls short is its interface and useabilty. Ive been using darktable on the side for years now but why bother if i also pay for capture one. If it works for what i need i will use it and have no issue adapting, free is better. I use capture one as my primary convertor and digikam for a dam. It is for those that want a free open source backup solution should your paid for app go subscription. Lightroom also has better highlight reconstruction when one or two channels are clipped. What Lightroom has that I want in darktable is GainMap in OpcodeList3 because that corrects the lens shade from DJI Mavic. I find it very easy and the prints look like the paintings.ĭPP4 has no support for Linux or my Spydercheckr.Ĭapture One has no support for Linux and no lens profile for my: That is what I do when I edit photos of paintings. Why would you Darktable over the mainstream paid apps other than money?īase curve, crop, rotate and perspective, color calibration with Spydercheckr. So I am curious who is the typical Darktable user? These seem to be the most popular apps by the numbers. I know that many people on this forum use the Adobe apps, Capture 1 and ON 1. I have and use mostly paid apps, including Affinity Photo, Pixelmator Pro, Luminar Neo, and DxO Nik Collection. Is Darktable for people who only want free Open Source apps? I have tried it a couple of times and find it very complex.
