Happy new year,
well documentated, my IQ is not sufficient for that module. I thought, I’ am experienced user )-; Spent a lot of time with the new module - for me it is a kind of mystic.
Belongs to this: color calibration - Brainblasting...
I would appreceate a scene-workflow with filmic and the new color calibration modules. Issues are: magenta sunrise and banding of the overexposed sun.
The png-file(here now jpeg) is an output of Rawtherapee without banding or magenta for reference. Originally it was intensive orange, very “golden”.
As you were asking about color calibration I’ll explain my process. Default setting had illuminant ‘as shot in camera’. CCT told me this was (daylight), so I adjusted illuminant to the same so I could access the temperature slider. Then I lowered temperature slider slightly to give more cyan/orange contrast. I handled the magenta highlights in filmic.
This is a fantastic shot. I couldn’t believe how little noise there was in those shadows!
Thank you. For my taste a bit greenish, but, it looks very naturally on the other hand.
Yes, I love my Pentax K3 APS-C. The values ISO400, 1/200 and +1.3 are a little bit weird - I didn’t pay attention enough. You look from German “Nordstrand” to “Pellworm”, if any interest.
This RAW file is problematic but darktable has different and more artifacts using amaze compared with both rawtherapee and photoflow
(obviously with the same processing and color space)
I often have a slight bias towards green. Habits are hard to break. However, here is a way to enhance the cyan/orange contrast without the green. Use colour picker on clouds in colour calibration. Then in new instance of color calibration, set CAT to pass through, go to B channel, increase blue in green, and decrease blue in red.
