Hello to everyone, this is my first post in this forum. I use darktable since about a year. In this days I’m trying to reproduce the effect of color dilters for black and white photos. I think with the color calibration module I’m having the best results. I post some images of the setting for the red filter, tell me what do you think about it.
I also have a question. Since I obtain the black and white images from color calibration module I couldn’t use color zones module to adjust tone or brightness of certain colors, so I put color zone module before color calibration to make it work. Is there could be some downsides in this order changing?
You are right! It is a good alternative. I will give it a try! I must say that the settings for the red filter I had found aren’t so good. My mistake was to play with color calibration with a monitor not calibrated. I will continue to try because I like the effect those filters make with images.
I think it’s fine, if I’m editing BW image, I’ve put my 2nd Colour Calibration module to do BW conversion right before Filmic RGB, and if I want to adjust certain “colour”, I’ve used Colour Balance RGB with a parametric mask or move Colour Zones module somewhere in between Colour Calibration module (Depends on what kind of adjustment i want to make).
