Photography: Free RAW Workflow Applications

The following is a list for FREE RAW Workflow Applications for you digital photographers out there. There are several types of applications for Windows, MAC and Linux. I hope you find some of the useful!

UFRaw http://ufraw.sourceforge.net/

O/S: Windows, Mac & Linux
The Unidentified Flying Raw (UFRaw) is a utility to read and manipulate raw images from digital cameras. It can be used on its own or as a Gimp plug-in. It reads raw images using Dave Coffin’s raw z conversionutility – DCRaw. UFRaw supports color management workflow based on Little CMS, allowing the user to apply ICC color profiles. For Nikon users UFRaw has the advantage that it can read the camera’s tone curves. Even if you don’t own a Nikon, you can still apply a Nikon curve to your images.
Dcraw http://www.cybercom.net/~dcoffin/dcraw/
DCRaw
O/S: Windows, Mac & Linux
Dcraw mission: Write and maintain an ANSI C program that decodes any raw image from any digital camera on any computer running any operating system.
That program is called dcraw (pronounced “dee-see-raw”), and it’s become a standard tool within and without the Open Source world. It’s small (about 8000 lines), portable (standard Clibraries only), free (both “gratis” and “libre”), and
when used skillfully, produces better quality output than the tools provided by the camera vendor.
RawTherapee http://www.rawtherapee.com/

O/S: Windows & Linux
Raw Therapee is a free RAWconverter and digital photo processing software.
Raw Photo Processor (RPP) http://www.raw-photo-processor.com/RPP/Overview.html

O/S: Mac
A Raw converter for Mac OS X (10.4,10.5 and 10.6 only), supporting almost all available digital Raw formats made for photographers by a photographer-software engineer with unmeasurable amount of help and tutoring from my friend, professional photographer Iliah Borg. We just got fed up with those converters made by programmers for their upper management 🙂
DCRawUI http://www.tanis.dk/wiki/index.php/DCRawUI
DCRawUI
O/S: Windows
DCRaw with added user interface. It allows some very very basic raw manipulations, like whilte balance (camera, auto, none), and sRGB conversion.

Taking a Stand for Privacy: Why We Said Goodbye to Google

In early April 2020, a significant decision was made at Mercola.com that sent shockwaves through the digital realm: we deliberately blocked Google from indexing our articles and breaking news blog posts. This move was not arbitrary; it was a conscientious step taken in response to the growing concerns about the invasive nature of surveillance capitalism, spearheaded by Google. The Era of Surveillance Capitalism For years, we've been sounding the alarm about the dangers posed by surveillance capitalists, with Google at the forefront. Most websites, including countless smaller ones, rely on Google's "free" analytics program and advertising platforms. But as the saying goes, there's no such thing as a free lunch. Behind the facade of free services lies a stark reality: your personal data is the currency exchanged for these conveniences. Google's power extends far beyond mere data collection. It operates as a surveillance agency with formidable yet covert capabili
