RawDigger

Free Download RawDigger full version standalone offline installer for Windows. It is used to visualize & examine raw data as the camera has recorded.

Overview of RawDigger

This program is a tool for visualizing and examining pure raw data as the camera has recorded it. In essence, it is a microscope that lets you drill down into raw data.

It doesn’t alter the raw data in any way. It is not a raw convertor. Instead, it allows you to see the data that raw converters will use.

Features of RawDigger

• It displays the real histogram of the raw data, which greatly differs from the in-camera histogram and histograms presented by most raw converters.
• The overexposure (OE) indicator will show you exactly what areas of the shot are blown out and in which color channel(s) it happened (best if used in channel view).
• It allows you to determine how the exposure meter is calibrated and what raw level corresponds to the midpoint of the in-camera histogram. RawDigger lets you establish the headroom in highlights and obtain optimal exposures.
• For ETTR practitioners, RawDigger makes it very simple to compare raw histograms to in-camera histograms and account for the difference, making the exposures as much “to the right” as possible.
• Helps determine the raw level at which the overexposure “blinkies” start on the camera LCD and to know how much headroom is still available after the blinkies start showing.
• If the shadows look blotchy or colorless or details in shadows are poorly resolved, you can determine how much they are underexposed and set the Underexposure (UE) indicator in RawDigger accordingly.
• A useful tool for examining how the relative per-channel underexposure depends on the color of light.
• It is more precise than any exposure meter to evaluate the uniformity of fill light and reproduction light setups (in terms of the evenness of both color balance and luminosity across the background).
• RawDigger helps establish the proper light filtration for studio photography to achieve the cleanest possible shadows on the shots.
• Landscape photographers may want to use RawDigger to determine the filters' effect on the lens, check the neutrality of polarizing and neutral density filters, and possibly select color correction and color compensation filters to use in a different light.
• It can be used to check the amount of vignetting caused by the lens and the sensor.
• It helps determine the idiosyncrasies of both the camera and the raw converter by providing a true view of the raw data and comparing it to the results obtained through raw conversion.
