Soon (I hope), I will get my new camera, it’s the new Fuji GFX100S, who got the exact same sensor as the GFX100.
The GFX100 are supported by darktable (as by rawtherapee), but not the GFX100s. We can currently find some RAW file on internet shoot with the GFX100S. So I’m using exiftool to change the metadata to tell darktable «it’s a GFX100» file. But well it’s not working, darktable end up with
[rawspeed] (DSCF0032.RAF) void rawspeed::FujiDecompressor::decompress() const, line 797: Too many errors encountered. Giving up. First Error:
void rawspeed::FujiDecompressor::fuji_decode_sample(T1&&, T2&&, rawspeed::FujiDecompressor::fuji_compressed_block*, uint16_t*, int*, std::array<rawspeed::FujiDecompressor::int_pair, 41>*) const [with T1 = rawspeed::FujiDecompressor::fuji_decode_sample_even(rawspeed::FujiDecompressor::fuji_compressed_block*, uint16_t*, int*, std::array<rawspeed::FujiDecompressor::int_pair, 41>*) const::<lambda(const uint16_t*, int*, int*, int*)>; T2 = rawspeed::FujiDecompressor::fuji_decode_sample_even(rawspeed::FujiDecompressor::fuji_compressed_block*, uint16_t*, int*, std::array<rawspeed::FujiDecompressor::int_pair, 41>*) const::<lambda(int, int, int)>; uint16_t = short unsigned int], line 308: fuji_decode_sample
and rawtherapee who handle the file … worstly:
rawtherapee DSCF0032.RAF
DSCF0032.RAF: Unexpected end of file
DSCF0032.RAF: Unexpected end of file
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped) rawtherapee DSCF0032.RAF
How can I help for supporting this camera ? (knowning I didn’t get the camera currenlty)
I check few raw file uploaded, I see some are just a landscape, some are a color chart, does make the work easier if I shoot a color chart ? I should have that somewhere. Or I can shoot a landscape or in fact anything you like.
I saw them (or I think) but my question are not exactly what to shoot, but what to shoot to make the work easier. Or maybe it’s the same whatever the content are.
The content of the shot doesn’t really matter, we are just tying to make sure we don’t include people or things that’d cause us to have to remove the image for copyright reasons.
Just make sure the shot is well exposed and in focus.
This will break when you update darktable next time, why it is important that you, as other have written, upload your raw files to raw.pixls.us.
Also check out the tutorial of creating noise profile for your new camera. Even if you can’t create the data in computer you may be able to take the samples.
I added GFX 50R support a couple of years back by copying over the data from the 50S (and then also donated a pair of RAF files, both compressed and uncompressed, to raw.pixls.us):
You should be able to do the same for the GFX 100S. I’m hoping to buy one too, after I save enough money (which would probably be the end of the year maybe).
Well. Almost. The losseless compressed didn’t work (don’t try compressed), darktable was unable to open the file.
The uncompressed seam to work. Event it’s overexposed.
I will try to do the noise «thing» in few weeks (no printer currently).
I will try to do the white-balance thing.
I just print the black to white gradient (PDF) and on my printer (I don’t have a good photo printer) when we close to the white the grey are not always decreasing. When we go to the white part sometime the grey seem a little darker than before.
