Raw2Film

PyPI version Docs CI Version License Python

Raw2Film is full raw image editor with a focus on realistic film emulation.

The looks are based on published film datasheets and use the image processing pipeline from Spectral Film LUT.

The film emulation includes:

  • Both negative and print material emulation for a huge variety of emulsions.
  • Grain with varying intensity based on brightness and hue.
  • Halation to add natural glow to highlights (no data available, so intensity should be adjusted to taste).
  • Resolution and micro-contrast matches mtf chart for each film stock.
  • Set the simulated frame size to match resolution, grain intensity, and aspect ratio.

To run Raw2Film it is required to have installed exiftool on your system. On Linux this can be done easily with

sudo apt install exiftool

The interface is designed to be familiar for anyone who has used a raw editor before.

  • The image bar on the bottom lets you select one or multiple images to edit at once. ( Select multiple with Shift or Ctrl.)
  • Copy settings from one image to the selected ones by clicking on the thumbnail with the middle mouse button.
  • Double click on a settings label to reset to the default value.
  • Many shortcuts are available. Hover over a setting to see its description and shortcut.
