Description
Support for adjusting darktable exposure by Fujifilm raw exposure bias. This corrects for a DR100/DR200/DR400 "dynamic range" setting.
Based upon fujifilm_ratings by Ben Mendis
The relevant tag is RawExposureBias 0x9650
. This appears to
represent the shift in EV for the chosen DR setting (whether manual or
automatic). Note that even at 100DR "standard"
there is an EV shift:
100 DR -> -0.72 EV 200 DR -> -1.72 EV 400 DR -> -2.72 EV
The ideal would be to use exiv2 to read this tag, as this is the same code which darktable import uses. Unfortunately, exiv2 as of v0.27.3 can't read this tag. As it is encoded as a 4-byte ratio of two signed shorts -- a novel data type -- it will require some attention to fix this.
There is an exiv2-readable DevelopmentDynamicRange tag which maps to
RawExposureBias as above. DevelopmentDynamicRange is only present
when tag DynamicRangeSetting 0x1402
is Manual/Raw 0x0001
. When it
is Auto 0x0000
, the equivalent data is tag AutoDynamicRange
0x140b
. But exiv2 currently can't read that tag either.
Hence for now this code uses exiftool to read RawExposureBias, as a
more general solution. As exiftool is approx. 10x slower than exiv2
Perl vs. C++
, this may slow large imports.
These tags have been checked on a Fujifilm X100S and X100V. Other cameras may behave in other ways.
