darktable, the open-source and cross-platform RAW image editor supporting GNU/Linux, macOS, and Windows operating systems, has been updated today to version 2.4.3.

darktable 2.4.3 is a maintenance update that brings support for new digital cameras, including the recently released Fujifilm X-H1 and Sony Alpha A7 Mark III (includes noise profiles and white balance presets), as well as the Kodak EOS DCS 3, Olympus PEN E-PL9, Panasonic Lumix DC-GX9, and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX1R II cameras.

The update also brings noise profiles for the Canon PowerShot G1 X Mark III and Nikon D7500 digital cameras, and a bunch of new features like support for ratings and tags in the watermark module, a script to help users convert .dtyle files to the .xmp format, and support for building and installing noise tools.

darktable devs need your help to fix broken NEF RAW support

The developers warn that support for Nikon NEF RAW files is unintentionally broken in this release due to the lack of samples. So if you have affected NEF RAW files, please contribute them to the darktable team as soon as possible. For more details, please read this support forum thread.

darktable 2.4.3 also enables reading of the Xmp.exif.DateTimeOriginal data from XMP sidecars, fixes language selection on macOS, addresses a crash that occured when tethering, avoids the creation of unwanted folders during certain export operations, and no longer selects subtags when collecting by tags.

You can download darktable 2.4.3 for GNU/Linux, Apple's macOS, and Microsoft Windows operating system right now through our website if you want to use one of the best open source RAW image editors available on the market. All existing users should update their installations at their earliest convenience.
