If you'd like to duplicate your camera's jpegs, why not use them to begin with and save yourself the trouble? Today's cameras are capable of absolutely gorgeous jpeg output.įYI, I shoot raw-only and convert with just about the simplest raw converter of them all: UFRaw although I do sometimes dabble with RawTherapee, Darktable and Photivo but I always come back to the basics - I like separating the raw conversion from image processing and limiting the conversion to debayering and applying WB and a tone/contrast curve, the rest is done in PP. Darktable is somewhat kinder on memory requirements.Īlso, consider your raw processing to always end up differently from the camera's OOC jpeg and don't try to mimic it - just try to process to a result that you yourself like. Just like a camera switch does not make your shots suddenly better, the switch of a raw converter will not do anything for your jpegs.īoth converters mentioned are very worthy competitors delivering extremely capable results. Seeing your remark above I'd say: stick with the one you are using. Any thoughts?Īlso, where is a good place to learn how to learn either? I can't ever seem to get anything close to what the jpegs are from my camera.
Considering switching from one to the other.
