My Sony is set to store both ARW and JPG. I'd like to be able to read the ARW into a program's memory and get closer to matching the JPG but with more bits per value. Currently, the best I've managed is slightly washed out and very slightly grainy compared to the JPG. There are also apparent differences in interpolation (such as thin dark lines wider in what I read from ARW vs. JPG).
I'm trying to write fairly general code for a stitching program, rather than fix an individual photo (so the exif dump below is given as an example of what kind of data is there, not for specific values).
My current code is:
auto& p = libRaw->imgdata.params; p.output_bps = 16; p.user_flip = 0; p.output_color = 1; p.no_auto_bright = 1; p.use_camera_wb = 1; p.use_camera_matrix = 3; libRaw->unpack(); libRaw->dcraw_process(); auto* im = libRaw->dcraw_make_mem_image(&status);
Does any of the Exif data guide me in setting parameters to match what the camera did?
