Mostly preference to my understanding. Levels and zone mapping are
targeting to lighten / darken certain areas. Tone curve is more complex
and affects also the color intensity. A good approach with tone curve is
to change to manual mode - then you can adjust lightness separately from
the color. My personal preference is between zone map and tone curve -
depending on the particular case. I rarely use levels. This is more of a
habit.

I don't use both of them - I do black- and white-point in exposure
module and use the zone module instead of curves ...

I am sure that we each have different ways of using these modules. I
do my basic processing with the tone curve and then as a close to
final step often (particularly with B&W) use the levels to shift the
gray mid-point.

What's the difference between the levels and the tone curve?
* Should it be one or the other?
* Which one is better/easier for setting the white point and the black
point?
* What are the differences?
I've read the "introducing the levels module", it doesn't explain the
difference
