it is very hard to break down nonlinearity due to wrong black level and non-linearity due to non-linearity in optical path (flare, etc). So you need correct black level before any other steps. One method to get it is completely black shot (lens caps on).
Yes, this is how I do all my dark frames and black level calibration. Except sometimes there is leak still, so I take the lens off and just use the mount cap.
Thanks for RawDigger which I use for just a week now to analyse my raw photos.
I made a series of shots to calibrate my camera spot meter. For evaluation I prepared a graph with the "lightness" (from L*a*b) over EV. For that I need to go to Photoshop but I think this would be a valuable feature for the statistics in RawDigger. Either additionally to the RGBG2 of the selection or selectable in a dropdown.
Thank you for explaining that to me. You see that I have to learn much more.
What I understand now, the "lightness" of a series of raw-shots would be simply the change in EV from shot to shot. Or I can use e.g. the selection of field N5 from the ColorChecker and take the average of the green channel from shot to shot for comparison.
Hello.
FRV can be used full-screen, but not RawDigger.
The use case when I'd like full-screen is running RawDigger on a small tablet/laptop in the field (possibly in conjunction with remote software such as DslrDashboard).
Yes, min/max controls are disabled explicitly for these windows. In next intermediate update (1.3.0) we'll provide some customization for it (minimize/maximise all windows if main window maximized/minimized; separate controls on each window). Thank you for pointed to the problem.
Feature request: In "Export RAW data to TIFF File"
Could we have the option of exporting a selection?
A couple of use-cases:
- Extract a slanted edge, or an area containing slanted edges which is significantly smaller than the whole image.
- Extract channels within a smallish region for spectral analysis (FFT).
This is in cases where the entire TIFF is ~1GB, or when extracting the same crops from a sequence of images.
The idea is to save storage space, and speed up subsequent processing.
Feature Request: Package dcraw_emu.exe with RawDigger
Could we have a dcraw_emu binary in RawDigger Releases?
My use case is MTF Mapper. MTF mapper is a bit behind LibRaw releases. I can download a LibRaw release, which includes dcraw_emu, and that supports RAW formats that the dcraw_emu packaged with MTF mapper does not. But released LibRaw RAW format support lags RawDigger LibRaw RAW format support.
If you happen to have any raw files from cameras that are not yet supported, including new and pre-production models, please, contact us for the support.
Fast Raw Viewer is the first and the only dedicated tool specifically designed and developed for extremely fast display, visual and technical analysis, basic corrections, sorting and setting aside or directly transferring for further processing of RAW images.

If that were added it would be perfect!

Dear Sir:
RGB to Lab conversion depends on the colorimetric RGB colour space. Raw files don't have one, so conversion to Lab becomes ambiguous.

Allow minimisation/maximisation of Histogram window (& others)
Hello again.
At least on Win10, the Histogram Window (also EXIF & Sample windows) don't have minimise/maximise controls.
Using RawDigger on a physically small screen, the ability to maximise (and minimise) the histogram would be nice.
