[... and many others ...] Hello, I have been following this thread for some times now, and even the discussions on github. If I understand correctly, the main complaint against new filmic module is that it does not reproduce the settings that the manufacturers want to force one to use. A matter of taste, of course, but... for me, jpegs ootb are just forged pictures, lies. When I look at a photograph that I shot, I would like to see what I could see at the time I shot it. Not what a manufacturer or whosoever wants me to see. I gave up with darktable Nkon basecurves for a long time. At least 5 years for my D700, for which I could build a profile that let my pictures look more or less like reality. Miles away from what Mr Nikon ought have allowed me to see. I was not able to do the same for my D4s, so I use a neutral profile instead. I would like to understand the way RGB filmic works, and how not to have to apply it to every single picture. I could not so far : if I copy the result from a picture to others, it often leads to awful results. So I have to process each picture at a time. A real ordeal.
