How to get a super result using Film Negative?

[rom9]

@obe

You absolutely need some further editing (tweaking?) after having applied film negative. But the amount of editing needed is much less compared to the situation when you use the basic RT tools only?

Yes, that is exactly the goal of the film negative tool: reduce the amount of manual editing needed

@obe

Where is film negative placed in the pipeline (I assume it is placed very early) and is it designed to be applied only once without the need for adjustments later on? A later adjustment of the film negative settings will surely cause a need to readjust other tools placed later on in the pipeline.

It is applied right before Demosaic (step 2 in the pipeline) , and yes, film negative parameters should be set before further editing.
In other words: first use the film negative tool to get a good positive to work with, and then proceed with further editing as you would normally do with a positive image.

@Morgan_Hardwood : great job in the docs page, very clear explanation, thank you very much!

@troodon : thank you for testing and sharing such a great sample!
Can i ask you what type of film it is?
