Batch Convert Your RAW Files Using Digikam

Transcribed from Mohamed Malik's web post, 21 February 2011

Do you have a lot of RAW files that need to be converted?

If you do Digikam has got you covered and this saves a lot of time. As for me I don’t have time to process each and every image separately. Here is how to convert them seamlessly and easily.

Select the RAW files and go to Tools -> Batch RAW Converter and this wizard will pop-up:

The wizard allows you to choose from the following settings:

• 8 bits or 16bits

• White balance

• Exposure correction, brightness

• Noise reduction, chromatic aberration correction

• Colour management

• Various output file formats such has PNG, JPEG, TIFF & PPM

Remember you can alter each and every one of those settings. When you are done applying your personal touches to the images just click Convert on the menu and digiKam will do the rest.
