Hello

​

I'm new to Darktable and I've noticed that it's terribly slow once I've lightly processed a few images (like 10). I check preferences and it says that "active OpenCL support" is not available. Some specifications are listed below

AMD Ryzen 7 7700

32GB DDR5-6000

AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT

Windows 11

Is my GPU not supported for GPU acceleration on Darktable? Thank you! If you need more details to help figure this out, I'll do my best to provide.

Hi!

I've never done cosplay photography before especially in conventions. However, I've done a lot of event photography and a bit of studio. Other than my camera, I own a Godox V1 Pro and a Godox trigger for it. I have questions on two specific gear that I'm hesitant to buy (mainly due to cost). Cost is an issue because I also cosplay, so I'd want to spend money on that first as I've already spent a lot on photography the past few years. I'm also doing both as a hobby.

Light Stand

I've been looking at this light stand that weighs a kilo and can go as tall as 2.3m which sounds great for run and gun. My questions are, how hard is it to bring one around while in cosplay? Is my arm's length good enough to use the flash off my camera?

Light Diffuser (not softbox)

I've been looking at a godox spherical diffuser for the V1 Pro. Can I use the V1 Pro with a 24mm or 35mm zoom for flattering lighting?

Thank you!
