Hi Rolf,
I do not use jpeg and record only RAW on the SD card, all settings to neutral and imported to Rawtherapee that is my preferred post processing software.
I also tend not to use my A7 over 400 iso with some incursions at 800 iso. This is a behaviour from my analogue days.
First rule, do not process files that seems overly difficult to process, so eliminate all crappy light shots and obviously under or over exposed shots.
Then do not forget to adjust the luminosity of the screen in relation to ambient light. Otherwise you will end up with inadequate results. (By the way I process files on a 14 inch laptop and do not feel the need for 4000 € screens to obtain acceptable results.
Adjust White and Black points to your taste for the widest tonal range without looking for excessive contrast.
Observe the tonal range and make up an opinion about the fact that you would like more or less contrast for your pic.
Then flatten (reset) the tonal curve and rebuild it starting with the highlights (right side of the curve) and ending with the shadows. You are not obliged to mimic the preset curve that is close to the in camera jpeg.
Test if additional actions on luminosity, contrast and chromaticity trigger a benefit or deteriorate the file. This is all about trial and error. I have no specified routine for that.
If your actions on the tonal curve were precise enough you do not need to use tools like tone mapping. Sometimes it is very useful and there is no harm testing a bit and judge the result.
If needed you can then apply local corrections for blown highlights and black shadows.
In most cases it is appropriate to add a bit of local contrast.
Finish with wavelets and/or sharpening through deconvolution and you are all set.
Usually I need from 10 to 15 minutes per file.
Most important, if you have the opportunity, spend some time in museums watching paintings from the 18th and 19th century, specially French and Flemish painters. These guys understood and knew everything about light. They teach us how deep shadows should be and where whites are brilliant without being blown up. Best approach to photography. _________________ Lumens Pixel

I experimented with rawtherapee many years ago, but then lost track of it. It's amazing that this program still exists and is being developed further. I agree with you regarding old churches, museums, etc. The lighting conditions there are truly unique.
Last question. Do you use a special framing program ? Thanks again.

I have played long time ago with Darktable but I prefer Rawtherapee. However I kept using the framing function of Darktable when I finish processing with Rawtherapee. _________________ Lumens Pixel
