Ein Tag vor Weihnachten erschien die OpenSource RAW-Fotobearbeitungsanwendung Darktable in der finalen Version 2.0. Nach einem kurzen Test mit einer Nikon D90 NEF Datei gibt es für mich jetzt keinen Grund mehr Photoshop oder Lightroom zum entwickeln von RAW Bildern zu benutzen. Die Standard-Manipulationen wie Belichtung, Farbkorrektur etc. waren schon immer sehr gut zu brauchen. […]
