Scenes with a high dynamic range can be challenging to work with - either you risk blowing the highlights or the shadows are way too dark. Let's learn how to compress a high dynamic range scene in darktable using both filmic rgb and sigmoid to compare how each of these tone mapping modules works.

Transferring files from one disk to another or one computer to another sounds like a trivial task, but when you're dealing with a huge number of files and directories, ensuring that the data was fully copied and exactly matches the source becomes harder to do.
