The original raw file, the sidecar file and now thirdly, the LUT file. With LUTs there's the problem that now you need three files instead of two, to reproduce an image. I think some of the AGFA emulations you've already seen in some of my recent uploads. There's an absolute wealth of film emulations distributed as luts that I previously couldn't use via Darktable. Well now Darktable 3.0 has full support for LUT files, including these HaldCLUT png files. When that is selected, I do local adjustments and sometimes go deeper into curves to achieve local contrast ("Clarity" in Adobeland) and other things. Many new optimizations have been added and the user preferences have been simplified. All performance and OpenCL settings and pixelpipe optimizations have been fully reviewed and updated. Speaking of tone curves, the major reason to use tone curves for me are the film emulations by Joao Pedro Almeida. The darktable default is now in line with the theme recommended by the team. I still base most of my work on the default base curve and tone curves. What was introduced in 2.6, "filmic" to replace base curve when desired, is now obsolete and "Filmic RGB" is a rewrite of that feature. I don't think it works perfectly yet but I can't but wonder: is it allowed to have tools this easy? This troubleshooting guide will give you steps to verify your camera can be used with tethering. After importing a new film roll darktable generates thumbnails for new images as they are. Not exactly Silver Efex but cool nonetheless. I'm not sure yet what to think about the feature but there's now a cool zone-system-esque module called "Tone equalizer" which defines 8 zones to the picture and you can manipulate them by pointing to something in the picture and wheeling your mouse to push or pull that zone.
