Darktable is an open source photography workflow application and RAW developer. A virtual lighttable and darkroom for photographers. It manages your digital negatives in a database, lets you view them through a zoomable lighttable and enables you to develop raw images and enhance them.
Install Darktable 1.4 in Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy/13.04 Raring/12.10 Quantal/12.04 Precise/Linux Mint 16/15/14/13 and other Ubuntu derivatives
Darktable is an open source photography workflow application and RAW developer. RAW is the unprocessed capture straight from the camera's sensor to the memory card, nothing has been altered. There are multiple alternatives in the open source world for RAW development (ufraw, dcraw, rawtherapee) but darktable tries to fill the gap between the excellent existing free raw converters and image management tools (such as e.g. ufraw, rawstudio, f-spot, digikam, shotwell).............
What's in this Release:
A tool for measuring basecurves from a sample image
A tool to check the system's color management setup. call cmake with -DBUILD_CMSTEST=On to build and install it. packagers probably want that.
Darktable now requires Gtk+ in version >= 2.24, Glib in version >= 2.30
Darktable now integrates a lua engine that allows writing scripts to make it easier to use with other image processing software. These scripts can be run when a particular event takes place (for example when a new image is imported) or when a particular keyboard shortcut is used. There are very few scripts available at this point but we expect the community to provide some more during the next release cycle.
Darktable now include several kinds of drawn masks: brush, circle, ellipse, path and gradients
Exporting in WebP format
Serious speed enhancements of lighttable when using large collections
Focus detection on lighttable
Local cached copies of images for offline files
A few new blend mode like "HSV lightness", "HSV color", "Lab lightness" and "Lab color"
New modules "contrast brightness saturation", "color balance" and "color mapping" which replaces the now deprecated "color transfer" module
New histogram mode "waveform"
Added a setting to automatically collapse modules to only have a single one expanded
Better user experience for bauhaus sliders: the popup now has a blinking cursor to make possible text entry more discover-able
The text entry for bauhaus sliders and vimkeys' ":set" command can now evaluate mathematical expressions
Additional logarithmic mode for editing the basecurve
Many bug fixes and small improvements
Known bugs
Ricoh Pentax K-3 PEFs aren't supported yet (DNGs work fine)
Nikon D5300 isn't supported yet
To install Darktable in Ubuntu/Linux Mint open Terminal (Press Ctrl+Alt+T) and copy the following commands in the Terminal:
Install Darktable 1.2.3 in Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy/Ubuntu 13.04 Raring/Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal/Ubuntu 12.04 Precise/Linux Mint 15/14/13 and Darktable 1.0.5 Ubuntu 11.10/11.04/10.04/Mint 12/11/9
Darktable is an open source photography workflow application and RAW developer. A virtual lighttable and darkroom for photographers. It manages your digital negatives in a database, lets you view them through a zoomable lighttable and enables you to develop raw images and enhance them.
General Info:
Darktable runs on GNU/Linux/Gnome.
Fully non-destructive editing.
All darktable core functions operate on 4x32-bit floating point pixel buffers, enabling SSE instructions for speedups. It offers GPU acceleration via OpenCL (runtime detection and enabling) and has built-in ICC profile support: sRGB, Adobe RGB, XYZ and linear RGB.
A collect plugin allows you to execute flexible database queries, search your images by tags, image rating (stars), color labels and many more. Filtering and sorting your collections within the base query or simple tagging by related tags are useful tools in your every-day photo workflow.
Import a variety of standard, raw and high dynamic range image formats (e.g. jpg, cr2, hdr, pfm, .. ).
darktable has a zero-latency fullscreen, zoomable user interface through multi-level software caches.
Tethered shooting.
darktable currently comes with 15 translations: albanian, catalan, czech, dutch, finnish, french, gaelic, german, italian, japanese, polish, russian, spanish, swedish and thai.
The powerful export system supports picasa webalbum, flickr upload, disk storage, 1:1 copy, email attachments and can generate a simple html-based web gallery. darktable allows you to export to low dynamic range (jpg, png, tiff), 16-bit (ppm, tiff), or linear high dynamic range (pfm, exr) images.
darktable uses both xmp sidecar files as well as its fast database for saving metadata and processing settings. All Exif data is read and written using libexiv2.
