I don't know if it's relevant but ... When I view an unprocessed RAW film roll in my file browser it is different from the colours/saturation etc I see when I open with DT. If I simply export to JPG and again view, side by side, in my file browser or Firefox doing a file viewer even Gwenview, then what I see is, again different. Upon investigation I found that what was actually being displayed for the RAW was embedded JPG. I gather that this is the screen image I saw on the 3" display on the back of my DSLR. If I use one of the exif tools to remove the embedded image and thumbnail from the RAW not only is the RAW file a lot smaller but my file mode browser can no longer display an image for the RAW. Other tools that CAN import the RAW can render it. Do remember, however, that the RAW captures what the lens projects onto the pixels and is unprocessed; no adjustments of any kind. What you see in the viewfinder and what that embedded JPG shows is what your camera settings are set up for. That a un-adjusted DT export to JPG of the RAW is different from the embedded JPG does not surprise me at all. -- Most of what we call management consists of making it difficult for people to get their work done. --Peter F.
