The way I’ve developed the DtStyles needs initial saturation. The saturation (30) and chroma (15) are deliberately set to the level they are at initially. The look is now complete and you can tweak your image from here. Adjust the exposure module and filmic module (white relative exposure and black relative exposure is a must, contrast is up to you). Choose your desired Style from the 14 available on this page.ĥ. Make adjustments to your horizon level.Ĥ. Ideally, there are a few steps you should take just before, and just after applying the Style required (however because of the nature of the modules in use, it isn’t always a necessity).Ģ. These new Styles that I have put together assume your default workspace is for the newer “Scene Referred” workspace to ensure they are compatible with all the newest versions of Darktable. Many, if not all Styles currently available are based on older versions of Darktable, and use many deprecated modules. Here I present my first 14 Styles (updated to V1.1 with tweaks to improve performance 14/10/22), including a modification to give a filmic look.

As a major contributor to Fujifilm film simulation “recipes”, it’s been at the back of my mind for a while to create a set of useful colour modifying presets to Darktable. They’re a powerful and useful part of editing in Darktable, and they can be great starting points to give your images a consistent look and feel. Darktable has its own presets that are known as Styles.
