Profile Edition Question and General Question

Submitted by agblum on

Forums: 

1) Does the Profile Edition permit custom white balance setting and export?
Added: I should clarify. Does the custom white balance require the use of a photo of a Color Checker Passport patch or similar tool? Or can a custom white balance area be selected from any photo?

2) What colour or colour space am I seeing when I look at the Raw Composite version of a photograph for which sRGB was set in-camera? (I'm not sure if I am properly asking my question here!)

Thank you.

1) Export mode is the same in Profile and Research Editions: raw data may be scaled and gamma corrected, same for all channels.
We have several requiest for WB on export, it scheduled to RawDigger 2.0 release.

Profile Edition can apply white balance on CGATS/CSV export for color profiling, but not on TIFF raw data export.

If you need RAW processor with fine control on white balance, you may try RawPhotoProcessor (www.rawphotoprocessor.com). It is free and mac-only.

2) Raw Composite is not color managed (as it usually understood today): pixel with, for example, R-channel maxed and G/B channels at zero out will be displayed as rgb(255,0,0) without any color transform

also - RD writes "NormCoeff=..." in DESCRIPTOR field... can we also add there a simple number in EV showing how far was your shot from the "ideal" one (so that the data had to be actually scaled up/down on export instead of simply normalizing to 0...255 range from 12/14 bit data, after WB application)
