Colors slightly off when opening Canon RAW file

Software darktable

basecurve already applies heavy “transformations”. LR does it even more. Some very general comments from a dt user:

  1. Camera specific basecurves were provided by users and could not be proofen to be correct.
  2. basecurve and the pixelpipeline of darktable is been discussed a lot over the last year, because of various flaws, but this is maybe unrelated to your issue
  3. correct colors is something which none of any RAW developers will produce without some sort of calibration
  4. most use the term of correct colors but they are talking about pleasant colors.
  5. I hope your screen is calibrated and you have a color managed workflow.
