Perhaps it's the case?Īlso, there are more darktable users/experts on, you might get more/quicker answers there. The G9 seems to have a similar mode called iDynamic. darktable doesn't seem to compensate the exposure as the other software: On Fuji cameras, we have the DR400 mode that underexposes the shot to retain highlights, then boosts shadow to compress the DR, and thus, the RAW is darker than SOOC JPG. Without your RAW to experiment with, it's like shooting in the dark. It should look like what I see in the FastRawViewer preview.

Is there some sort of preset being applied? I've not consciously created/saved any presets. It is not unusual for me to see a darker image in Darktable, but I've never seen anything this extreme. What I see in FastRawViewer when sorting: Pre-defined presets are shown with a lock symbol. In addition you can define your own presets from within each module in darkroom mode (see Section 3.2.3, Module presets ). darktable already comes with a set of pre-defined presets for several modules.

I'm seeing something odd and different on an image I've imported into Darktable to edit. By pressing the import button at the bottom of the window you can import a saved preset.
