RawDigger

RawDigger by LibRaw, LLC, is a tool to visualize and examine pure raw data as the camera has recorded it. In essence, it is a microscope of sorts that lets you drill down into raw data.

RawDigger doesn't alter the raw data in any way. RawDigger is not a raw convertor. Instead, it allows you to see the data that will be used by raw convertors.

RawDigger supports nearly all cameras that have raw capability. Support for new cameras is usually implemented within few weeks after raw samples become available.

What is new in this release:

• Settings related to specific data formats or manufacturers only (that is, Sony ARW2, Panasonic, PhaseOne, Sigma dp2 Quattro, Canon/Nikon sRAW/Small RAW), have been moved to the "Vendor Specific" subsection within the Data Processing settings section. Settings affecting all cameras/data formats remain in the main "Data Processing" section.
  
  
• Sigma dp2 Quattro support:

  The following settings in the "Data Processing -> Vendor Specific" Preferences subsection have been added:

  • R and G channels interpolation - turns on the duplication of pixels in the R and G channels to form a 2x2 square
  • Low sensitivity pixel interpolation - turns on the normalization of pixels with lower sensitivity found in the R and G channels (in the dp2 Quattro camera, every 64th pixel in the R and G channels has a sensitivity lowered by about 2 stops. What these pixels are used for is currently not certain, possibly for exposure control in overexposed areas).
    
    
• Histogram
  • the bug on rare occasions causing the histogram to appear unopulated upon the change of the size of the histogram window is resolved
  • the labels on horizontal axis are continued all the way to the right instead of reaching only to the maximum of the range settings on top of histogram window
    
    
• New camera support:
  • Casio EX-100
  • Hasselblad H5D
  • Nikon D810, 1 J4, 1 S2
  • Panasonic DMC-FZ1000, AG-GH4
  • Pentax 645Z
  • Samsung NX3000
  • Sony A7S, DSC-RX100III
• New color data for some Hasselblad cameras
• Exiftool is updated to version 9.69
