Thanks Roman for the clarification. This setting improves the blue color tone a bit but it still looks different in color and darker. I've done a few more test pictures with lots of different blue objects. In many cases the raw files looks good in darktable using the standard input color profile. Only in some cases the blue becomes dark or purple. I have to test if this occurst at special situations, e.g. bright sunlight.
