    Good video-thanks. I'm fairly experienced in photo editing (using Photoshop, Adobe Camera Raw -but not Lightroom -and GIMP), so I have an idea of what I think a given image needs, but didn't have a clue on getting started with darktable. This vid was a big help.
    I found that I got the most out of it by following along with an image of my own in darktable, stopping and starting the video (and sometimes replaying sections) so I could immediately try each action you showed. I have to agree that the module text in the video was a little hard to see-I watched fullscreen on a 24" monitor, and I had to get really close to the monitor to ready the text. I totally mean this as constructive feedback, and I appreciate the work you put into the video.

    great video! what would you say are the main differences betwee darktable and lightroom? from i've seen lightroom is more user friendly which might be good for me as a beginner.

    • @RicoResolves
      @RicoResolves  5 месяцев назад

      The main difference is that Lightroom requires the Adobe Suite and a monthly subscription whereas darktable is free and a bit more difficult to learn. But with the more than 150 videos on darktable on my channel you'll be able to create amazing photos!

    Nice helpful video! I know darktable has great potential for getting the most out of my images. However, i struggle with getting the raw photos my sony a7iiis produces up to the level of the jpegs that are saved simultaneously. The in-body algorithms seem to do a better job with noise,exposure,sharpness than i can do. So i tend to just go with the jpegs, leaving a lot of potential untouched. Ive tried my share of videos but i feel like even after many DT steps inam merely approaching the in camera jpegs. Any tips/workflow/modules?

    I'm trying to follow along but imo some things are not explained well/at all for a 'beginner' guide, such as the CAT module or histograms and how to interpret them. I'm struggling to warm up my white balance with the CAT module, and the colorfulness section seems to have very little effect. This isn't a bad guide and I appreciate the rest of it, just maybe it's glossing over parts that really need more explanation

      One specific example is 20:15 where to add more green to the image, we go to the green section but slide the 'R' component? Why does adding red in the green section give us more green, why not slide the 'G' component? This is something I don't understand and would love a clear explanation of

    Just giving some honest feedback.
    I downloaded darktable today and am well versed with lightroom. A lot of the configurations here are brand new to me and the video plays really fast. Hard to keep up with towards the end when you talk about the masking and the snapshots. Maybe do some zoom-in's when clicking on differen't configuration icons? Other than that, pretty thorough.

    • @jjmummert
      @jjmummert 2 месяца назад

      I learned basics of photo editing on Photoscape, so I know the basics. I am finding that with most Darktable tutorials, presenters go very quickly, assume folks are familiar with Lightroom, and have their point arrows moving around as if one is using hand gestures. That is very distracting. Plus, print is very small. It's just hard to see, watch, and follow.
      Someone needs to do a slower paced tutorial that explains the general features and then slowlywalks beginners through common editing steps. Not all viewers are under 40 years old.
