There’s no one size fits it all - if you need information of cropped areas
you’d better crop late in your workflow, otherwise crop early.
For a beginner it’s ok to recommend late cropping so nothing is out of view too
early. Hopping back and forward to adjust an improper cropping eats more
Hi all,
Not sure if something has changed with v4, or if it's user error on my
part, but my Collections module seems to now only search on uncatgeorized
or parent tags, but will not search for child tags.
Have I done something to cause this?
Can I get back the ability to search tags and have child
For what it's worth I find that cropping early on enhances my workflow.
I don't have a fire breathing computer, so rendering (if not analyzing?)
less of the image possibly (?) bumps performance just a little. But
mainly, getting rid of content that I know I don't want and getting the
image

Just looking at the DT pipeline and I see cropping is placed before filmic.
For most images I doubt that cropping would have a significant effect on
tone mapping, but if it is obvious that it would then do it early in the
processing steps.
I am sure reaching consensus on what to write in the

My first objective with raw data is to establish the outline and tones
of the final image. I use perspective control and cropping prior to any
other function. Where these modules come in the 'pipeline' is really of
little importance to me. The 'frame' of the image is key to all further
My understanding:
The 'L' histogram is based on the potential JPEG output however the
R, G, B histograms are based on the RAW data. This was information
offered, I think correctly, from a Fujifilm source.
I wonder what others think that their camera exposure meter is doing?

Well I learnt something new today, the camera histogram is based on the
jpeg. What I tell my students is to avoid clipping, if possible, as the
detail is lost. Also most noise is in the shadows so ettr is preferable to
under exposure to reduce noise, but clipping is the cardinal sin.

That would depend on where it falls within the pipeline. I am not on DT at
the moment so I am not sure where it is placed. However, today I edited an
image and applied cropping before filmic for the reasons you are alluding
to.

The
https://docs.darktable.org/usermanual/development/en/overview/workflow/process/
section in the user manual outlines the recommended processing order. It
places cropping towards the end along with creative adjustments.
Wouldn't it make more sense to do cropping first, before tone
ETTR is not over-exposing. It means to use the maximum exposure without
highlight clipping for best use of the DR of the camera to preserve most
details in shadows. But the problem with most cameras is, that the
histogram is normally based on the JPG-processed picture. And that it is
often
This seems to be conflicting info. I would read it as ettr is
recommended, however, even under exposing by up to one stop is not
detrimental.

I don't quite understand this section in the manual:
https://docs.darktable.org/usermanual/development/en/overview/workflow/process/#take-a-well-exposed-photograph
It recommends exposure to-the-right (ETTR), but then talks about
under-expose images by 0.5 to 1 EV. Isn't ETTR about
