Photographers can tag their images with keywords, color labels, and star ratings. You can also add file info to the images, such as title, creator, rights, keyword tags, etc. In this case, you can move files from the SD card onto your computer. The one exception is importing images from a camera. You’ll have to do that through the file explorer or Mac Finder in my case. It adds a bit of extra time to the photography workflow, but hey, it’s first-world problems.ĭuring the import process, Darktable will not move image files or create new folders. As a result, I have to select each individual folder that I want to import. However, Darktable doesn’t allow me to import subfolders. Importing images in Darktable is simple but not comprehensive.įor example, I can import individual photos or folders. I’m happy with the default dark layout, and the color scheme is on par with other digital asset managers. The interface is not customizable other than color layouts. The software also has modules for map, print, slideshow, and tethering. In Darktable, the image-management or library area is called Lighttable, and the image-editing area is called Darkroom. Though some people consider these pop-ups as ads or spam, they can provide valuable information on new features and needed tutorials. One thing I noticed is the software doesn’t pop up a news or tutorial box like many premium image-management software.
The Darktable interface is straightforward, and individuals new to photography software shouldn’t have problems navigating. When I opened Darktable, I was greeted with the familiar image-management layout: the image or main area at the center, the folder or library at the left, and the adjustment settings at the right.
