The Virtual Darkroom

Darktable operates like a computerised dark room which allows photographers to manage their digital negatives in a meaningful way. It is an open source workflow application specifically designed with the needs of photography experts in mind.

Image Management and Editing Made Easy

A raw image developer, Dartktable is a virtual darkroom which can be used in various ways by photographers and photographic editors. It allows users to manage their digital images in a handy database that allows a variety of methods for scanning pictures. For example, it allows you to view them through a zoomable function or to light them in various ways. Basically, it is designed to allow photographers to develop their raw photos and to enhance them. Functions like crop and rotate are available, as you might expect, but also more advanced options such as exposure controls. These allow users to tweak exposures for different times with a choice of slider controls or a histogram module. Base curves can also be reset using Darktable, as can a three-way white balance function which offers the ability to add tints and tonality. Lastly, bilateral filters and spot removal modules help you to clean up images with a minimum of fuss.

Effects and Editing

Darktable is more than a post-production editing suite, but it certainly offers plenty in both those areas. Watermarks, vignetting and colour correction processes are all included. It supports many operating systems.

  • Pros

    • Plenty of choice of functions
    • Easy to operate
  • Cons

    • 64-bit processing is a minimum requirement

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.
