![]() Here is an FAQ from the amazing person who developed filmic module. Apply sharpening, local contrast, and denoise at the very last when you happy with everything else.(I found color zone to be easier to understand when I start learning, but now I use color balance more). Use color balance and/or color zone to manipulate the color to your liking.Then use filmic to compress the highlight (if needed) and adjust the black level.Adjust the exposure via the exposure module until you see the mid tone is where you want it to be (how bright/how dark you want the mid tone). If you already edited your files with basecurve module, reset/discard your history on that file first.Set darktable to use scene referred workflow instead of display referred workflow.I suggest you to read some documentation and view Youtube intro to Filmic, but basically the workflow will be: This is where I learn about the scene referred workflow and Filmic module in Darktable. Here is when I stop comparing the SOOC JPEG to my developed RAW and start to process my RAWs in more 'methodical' manner without relying on a magic profile. The community who built the basecurve profiles can only approximate to try to match the camera profiles as close as possible. This is understandable as basically the recipe to convert the raw data into the out of camera JPEG is Nikon's or other camera maker's propietary information. However, based on my experience using the basecurve alone, the result will always look slightly different with the out of camera JPEG. Basecurve will try to apply some tone curve to the raw data to make it look more like some camera profiles. Actually those metadata are stored in the RAW as well, but unlike Lightroom, Darktable doesn't care about it and only read and process the RAW data. Those profiles are affecting the JPG, but not the RAW file. Secondly, as the other poster said, check your Nikon Z profile or Active D lighting. That was my first impression too when I start learning darktable, but don't give up!įirstly if your raw came too dark, then use exposure module too make it brighter, not basecurve. I tried to select nikon, nikon like, neutral, as you see no change. ![]() Nothing change by changing the base curve. But when I open the raw file it gets dark, much darker.
