• Why I stopped taking photographs almost altogether

  There are non-subscription alternatives, though they differ from lightroom. I quite like Exposure[0] and although I haven't used the desktop version of RAW Power[1] its ipad app is quite good. [0] https://exposure.software. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Camera Canon EOS Rebel SL3 for photojournalism and reporting?

  Although I have a Fujifilm x-t200 with the kit lens, I take most photos with my Apple 12 pro max. It does an outstanding job. But I use Lightroom and Photoshop to color correct, straighten, and crop and sometimes run it through Exposure's filters to make it look a little richer. Source: 11 months ago

• Pixelmator Pro 2.3 Adds Smart Subject Selection and Background Removal Features, Plus New Select and Mask Tools

  I really like Exposure 7 as a Lightroom replacement. Super fast and really competent raw development. https://exposure.software. Source: over 2 years ago

• Photomator for Mac

  I'm pretty new to photography. I understand a lot of the basics (ex-wife shot as a professional hobbyist for a few years) but never really paid much attention to her editing workflow. Adobe already gets me for $20/mo for Illustrator (because designers) and I looked at alternatives. I've been using darktable http://darktable.org since I got my camera about a month ago and it's nice enough for me. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Nudibranch (Nembrotha cristata), Verde Island, Philippines, April 2023

  Thank you! The shot was gently edited in darktable. More TG-5 / single strobe examples here. Source: about 1 year ago

• I've seen it with Adobe

  No, unfortunately not. But check out the free Darktable app which is similar on darktable.org and also this list https://petapixel.com/best-free-raw-editing-programs/. Source: over 1 year ago

• Exporting a RAW file. Is it possible without the format changing? If I export to another folder on my mac it becomes a .jpeg, to Lightroom it becomes a .jpg, to Photoshop it becomes a .tiff. I want to be able to edit the RAW file, a .dng in another app that is not Apple proprietary.

  It sounds like you might want non-destructive editing. Look at something like darktable.org or Lightroom. You can edit your RAW files in multiple different ways, i.e., effectively keeping multiple copies of edited RAW files around. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Software to edit and enhance Photos (JPG and RAW).

  If you're looking to learn more complicated software without having to rent it while you do, there's Darktable. Rawtherapee is another app in the same category, and usually appeals to people who don't like Darktable's interface. Source: about 2 years ago
