Re: [Darktable-users] Problem with X-Trans RAW files: color artifacts

2015-01-06 Thread Dan Torop
Hi Francisco, Ulrich's advice seems right on! In the newer NEF file I'm still not seeing areas of reds with low enough luminosity to trigger these artifacts. It may just be that the X-Trans image by a particularly fortuitous chance recorded such saturated dark reds, but that's a hard to replicate

There have already been some very valid remarks on this topic. It's obvious that your specific use of the tone curve can give some issues at the "darker" end. Eventually this is strongly linked to the occurence of "unbounded" colors. You can read here http://www.darktable.org/usermanual/ch03s0

Hi Francisco I think the darks have to be very dark in the image to see artifacts -- if they even happen. When you choose the eyedropper from tone curve and click in the image, the L levels in the darkest (and artifact-ed) bits of the X-Trans image have L values of 1 or 2 (and are changed to abou

Hi Francisco, Do you have an example NEF file? One with shadows with saturated colors would make this most visible. The Nikon sensor could also be less noisy in the shadows. I'm not sure if these artifacts are just a cost of automatic chroma scaling, or should be considered a bug for a corner ca

Hi Dan: Thank you for your message. I have been noticing color artifacts when raising the lower point of the tone curve when editing X-Trans RAW images but not when editing standard Bayer RAW images (e.g., Nikon D800 .NEF). Is there anything specific to X-Trans RAW images here? Thanks again. Best

Hi Francisco, This is interesting... The trouble seems to come via the tone curve module's automatic scale chroma setting. (The noise doesn't seem to depend upon the demosaicing algorithm -- it's there with VNG or Markesteijn.) When "scale chroma" is set, each pixel processed has its saturation

My second camera is a Fuji X100S, which has an X-Trans sensor. I am getting color artifacts in several images when I raise the lower end of the tone curve. The problem does NOT happen with my Nikon D800 RAW images, only with X-Trans RAW images. I would also like to point out that it is common to ra

Hi Francisco; I had a look at your image and note a couple of things that would not be "my way" of processing this piece. The 'base curve' that you are using is quite different from the X100S standard curve and that really changes the lighting dynamics of the scene. Secondly the 'tone curve' i

My second camera is a Fujifilm X100S, which has an X-Trans sensor. I recently reported here that I've been noticing moiré in some images. I am also having other problems. I get color artifacts when I move the lower end of the tone curve up. An example (a photo I made today of my wife): RAW (.RAF)
