Hi all, I rented a RX100 Mark VII for a concert and the photos are lovely. Now I'd like to edit them in high contrast black and white and I'm learning to use Darktable.

I tried to edit a few jpgs and the results were really good. Then I tried to edit a few raws and the results were not so good. I found fine tuning hard to do somehow. (Maybe it's also my lack of Darktable knowledge)

For context, I'm a concert photographer since 92, using lots of various cameras from analogue to digital and lately I was shooting raw on Canon EOS where raws respond really well to subtle tweaking.

My questions are: in your concert experiences, do you prefer to rework your Sony raws or the jpgs?

And do you have practical tips that are specific to *.ARW?
