Darktable processed RAW versus Canon embedded JPG

Here is my version, which I tried to make look sharp. It is a beautiful bird, but either it is too small, too far away or the lens to short :innocent:. I am really surprised how good the image looks after despite the massive crop.

My camera is set to shoot RAW only so there isnt an OOC JOEG. However, I extracted this image using

exiftool -b -JpgFromRaw

Are these any use?


and the same image cropped down

Okay, that explains the small file size of the JPEG. So, the comparison should be done with your extracted preview JPEG.

However, if you haven’t changed the original name of the file, you can still paste it into your SD card and develop that RAW in-camera to full sized JPG.
