There are some parts/modules that I haven’t the slightest what they do, and have had to research them / play around to learn – which isn’t something I mind, but it goes to show the sheer amount of control users have over their photos through darktable.Īccording to the darktable website, “Currently darktable contains 61 image operation modules. I’ll say this though, I like to think I’m not half bad with a camera, but I’m far from knowing everything I could learn. That out of the way, many people seem to enjoy it, and to each their own. I’ve never personally used lightroom, but I’m told that the darktable interface is supposed to resemble and feel like Lightroom. The one and only reason that I personally don’t use darktable, is because of its interface. You can also check the instructions on their website If your distro does not carry darktable, I would advise a quick search online will likely provide the results you seek, darktable is very common and familiar. Simply install ‘darktable’ as you would most other packages, and voila. Installation of darktable is generally pretty simple, with most distributions carrying it in their main repositories. However, what I feel sets darktable apart from its competitors, in my opinion, is the sheer level at which you can tweak things using various modules. Very similar to software like UFRawr, or some aspects of Adobe Photoshop, darktable allows users to take their photos, and correct many aspects / errors / things they see, such as saturation, sharpening, exposure, highlights, shadows, etc. Like many applications available on GNU/Linux systems, darktable is cross-platform, and also available on Windows and MacOS systems.ĭarktable is a very powerful application primarily used to edit RAW files shot on DSLR cameras. One application that was only mentioned in passing, that I felt deserved its own article, is darktable.
I previously wrote an article about the tools I use for GNU/Linux and photography, and mentioned the ones I personally have made the most use of.
