Thank you so much for the examples. I had no idea how useful this module can be. Excited to start using it! Darktable is such a powerful tool, and it's wonderful that you make these videos to show the possibilities!
Master Boris and DT team, this looks incredible and appears to become a new standard for color processing. Your examples and the tool set of the module also seems like a straightforward method to approach a basic understanding of 'how color works', somehow. Looking very much forward to trying it out - thanks!
I did a quick test on one of my landscapes which had some very high contrast areas and it made a great improvement. The image had so much greater depth. I will re-watch this video. Thank you Boris.
Thanks for the video, Boris. Always a pleasure and inspiration. One proposal, would you mind creating a tutorial about how to optimally prepare pictures for print?
This looks like an amazing new tool. Thanks again Boris. I assume if you want to affect different areas of the image you can use more than one instance so for example tightening the hue curve on one hue then leaving it wide for another in the other instance. Brilliant as ever.
Was delaying the upgrade, but you made me do it now with a great tutorial. And I see 4.8.1 is out as well, so some smaller bugs ironed out. I was expecting it to "only" be a replacement for color zones, but this is so much more. Some of the things would be achievable with masks, but it looks much simpler using color equalizer.
Yes, as @murlidhr replied. You could be more precise with parametric masks, but it would also be much more time-consuming. The nice thing is that you can use both. :)
Yes - that's exactly what I needed! I've just installed the latest version of Darktable, so far I've been using the default from Debian 12 - Darktable version 4.2. It is a very nice tool for me 🙂
Your tutorials are fantastic. Could you discuss how to understand the histogram you use? When a photo is overexposed or underexposed. How do you read it correctly? I also see that you are using the Sigmoid module and not Filmic RGB. Why? I have noticed that most of my photos look better without using these modules. Are they essential when editing?
Darktable is a very powerful program. But I have not found any videos on how to use darktable for focus stacking image. If you can do it, it would be very interesting to watch such a video.
Amazing demonstrations! Question: for the photo of the leaves, did you use a tripod? I am asking because I noticed the relatively long shutter speed: I’d never be able to avoid motion blur with those settings. Thanks for your great series on Darktable!
Another excellent example of how to use darktable at 120% Boris, I have a request. When you switched from films to sigmoid, I was looking forward to better work. Unfortunately for my portraits I can't get the same or better results in sigmoid than with the filmic module. I make portraits in the studio, and with the sigmoid module, the bright areas come out terribly burnt, and the color balance module is almost impossible to use to fine-tune the color contrast. Can't you do one more episode on portrait editing with sigmoid including all the other edits and this mod as well? Thank you. And I appreciate your work.
I don't understand that. Do you have any examples so that I can see where the problems lie? I actually get much better results with Sigmoid because the colors look much more natural. I have never had any problems with bright areas.
@@josefsmolik5991 Unfortunately it does not work on youtube. Maybe here: postimages.org/ And then you can send me the link. Preferably a jpeg of the unedited photo and after your edit.
I put the link to the photos twice here and I don't see it here. Did you find it? Or should I send you an email? I'm sorry, I don't understand.@@s7habo
Thank you, Boris. You've shown me that color equalizer is much more powerful than I thought and I used until this episode.👏

Hello, hello - Welcome back, Boris.
Like always. Amazing walk through. I am still after all these years amazed by your speed between modules. 😄
Thanks again Boris. Another great video that made new Darktable features easier to understand and use :)

Great tutorial, and such a super powerful new module!
Thank you for the episode. Learnt a lot
Another great tutorial - thanks Boris

Wow, your knowledge of darktable is incredible! Thank you for explaining this module so well!
Amazing new module. I always missed an HSL module and color zones just wasn’t that good and I rarely used it
Thanks for the video, Boris. Always a pleasure and inspiration. One proposal, would you mind creating a tutorial about how to optimally prepare pictures for print?
Another great episode, Boris. I love your videos and learn so much from them!
Can you do another small episode with this module with portraits only.
merci boris Super tutoriel💪👍

Powerful tool, make it easier and faster to brighten/darken certain color with saturation and hue adjustment.
Thank you for this. Could some of these manipulations be done using masking by selecting appropriate ranges? Which one would be better?
yes. you can always make masks

Thanks so much
Nikon implemented similar tool in their scanner software, and keot it in later raw processing tool, including latest NX -D...
Thank you for the Color equalizer presentation - I was very interested in it, so far I have solved it in a different way, but I really like this one 🙂
