Raw Therapee for processing

[Steven Ruttenberg]

I was playing with this last night and it has a lot of potential. I use this for b/w conversions sometime and was considering it for use with a camera that has had the bayer filter removed. It has a ridiculous amount of things you can do and the best part is it is free! Just thought I would throw that out there. I haven't figured out though if it would do inversion of a negative however, once that part is done, this program offers lots of choices.

Used it many years ago. Very powerful program with a STEEP learning curve!

I don't know if this is the only way, but one way to reverse a negative is to go to curves and pull the left point all the way up and the right one all the way down. I looked around a bit on the web, and this is the only way I found to do it.

Steep is the word!

Yeah steep for sure. Very powerful but also easy to royally f up a photo too. Good thing you can start over. I have used it for difficult files in the past and special files that LR or PS can't really handle.
