What is darktable?

Darktable is an open-source software for raw photo data. This data can be managed and viewed in a virtual version, as is typically done in a darkroom. With the zoomable light table, digital negatives are enlarged. The software enables the optimization and development of the raw images. Its features include color management, a database, and a cross-platform system that supports different image formats.

What is Adobe Lightroom?

Adobe's cloud-based software is used for organizing, editing, and sharing images. Through its image editing features, it allows users to lighten, edit colors, or remove elements. Existing presets aid in optimizing the images. Other features include sharpening tools, various effects, or editing select areas. The finished images can be directly shared on social networks from the editing tool. Additionally, the app allows you to optimize your own photos on mobile devices. Adobe Lightroom can be subscribed for €11.89 per month or as a package with the Adobe Creative Cloud. A free trial version is available on the tool's website.
