Any Capturehshop VIDEO Help files online?
I don't have FTP Server yet, but I'm happy to contact you off-line.
What exactly are the Brumbaer Tools for, and how do they compare to CaptureShop? Advantage & Disadvantage, PLEASE!
Are his Tools going to become part of the Exposure Software?
Regards
Danijela

the brumbaer tool is reducing the needs for a mf back software to its absolutely minimum, but delivering the optimum in quality. little bit like good valve amplifiers.....
1. it safes the raw files from the back to the hard disc, without converting them to any other format as *.mos or *.sti or whatever. so you can save the pure imager data for archiving.
the dng converter also reads and converts to dng the files written by capture shop,- also files from the 54H back ( but not so sophisticated till now ) as well as emotion 22+75 ( here it works "perfect").
2. it writes after that *.dng files, meanwhile the writing procedure is removed the centerfold stitch from the dalsa sensor ( a software code the leaf programmers havent wrote till now... greatings to yaya here :,- ). also it is possible - if desired - to calculate in the dng a white reference shot , similar as capture does with its lcc and leaf with its gain adjuster,- but in a very sophisticated way regarding long time exposure moise and other things.
the white references are used in the right moment in a batch, so you have not to care about them after you have shot them subsequently. thats a great workflow help for architectural use with shift cameras. with normal mf cameras usually one white reference is enough for all lenses, at least with my 5 contax and 4 hassy lenses it works with one reference.
two color profiles are used for the conversion and they are seamingless blended, a.e. you can take one profile ( made with a color checker ) with daylight and one profile with tungsten light and the dngconverter blends from one to the other profile, depending on the color temperature you have used meanwhile shooting.
it implements in the *.dng files highlight information, meanwhile other programms cut them out after a certain point, stephan is providing these informarions to the conversion program ( as lightroom or whatever ) in a form that it can recover highlights mostly perfect neutral. so it gains about 1 till 2 stops !!! compared to the files from other software /manfufactors .
thats an absolute great feature, you have not longer to care much about clouds and windows,- it works really impressive well.
there are several other little tools available from brumbaer.
one tool let you find to each *.ia file the corresponding *.br file. usefull for sinar owners, not worth to explain here...
one tool for tethered shooting. simple but functional.
