Episode 011: RAW converting with UFRaw

Edit: Episode 76 covers some new aspects of UFRaw and corrects some mistakes. Look at it too!

RAW conversion was a thing a lot of you wanted to know something about. And in this show I tell you how to use the program UFRaw to get RAW images into the Gimp. My job was coming a bit into the way – I had to build the schedule for my school. So this show contains some ‘should be’ outtakes and perhaps I have overlooked some stuff. Please feel free to ask – I will be glad to answer all your questions in a follow up show.

SOME LINKS:

The UFRaw home page.

A lot of camera profiles.

Not sure which format to shoot in? We break down the differences between RAW, JPEG, and TIFF.

For a more modern RAW workflow, consider Darktable as an alternative.
