I have no experience with Olympus raw files, but I have often
used commandline dcraw for operating on various other raw files,
though it can take some fiddling with commandline options to get
satisfactory results.  Olympus does get mentioned in passing in
dcraw's man page.

I read on the dcraw Wikipedia page that darktable uses dcraw as
a backend.  So you'd expect similar coverage of formats, though
using dcraw directly might give you more control.

However, I notice that the Wikipedia page also says that the
latest version of dcraw is from 2018 (verified by looking at the
source code from the author's website).  And in the list of
supported cameras at

   https://www.dechifro.org/dcraw/#faq

while it mentions Olympus TG-5, it's quite possible that Olympus
has tweaked its raw format in the past five years, so maybe dcraw
can't deal with images from the TG-7.  It'll depend on what
changes Olympus might have made.   I guess there might be
different, incompatible, versions of .orf format.

Sorry if this isn't particularly helpful.  I hope you manage to
process your images.


— Smiles, Les.
