Filmic v4 highlights reconstruction - magenta colour

[kofa (István Kovács)]

See what @anon41087856 says about magenta highlights here:

@filmic v4 on the way darktable

in this case, choosing the colorful one yields magenta highlights because of clipping + white balance (of course, there is still the option of clipping the whole pixed if any channel is clipped, so you avoid magenta in there, but that limits the reconstructing power too)

You could try to use filmic’s recovery, but it’s not the only option; plus, you’d have to set it to produce desaturated highlights.
Personally, I usually use Lch most of the time, and I don’t really use filmic’s highlight recovery; when I do, I usually move the structure vs texture slider all the way to the left. I’d love to see more examples on how to use it highlight recovery features; I’ll have to check out more of Aurélien’s and @Bruce_Williams 's videos.
