Roadmap wishlist

[Roadhouse]

Long post about what I want in Photomator. ONE is features I think are basic for a photo app. TWO is important add ons, and 3 is extra-special-bonus features. Feel free to make comments.

ONE
– Red and blue highlight/shadow warnings (every photo editing software out there has this).
– Scalable histogram (the histogram on MacOS is way too small).
– Pressure sensitivity for the iPad and tablet's like the Wacom Intuos Pro.
– Proper naming convention for WB, exposure etc. (why on earth is WB in % and not in kelvin?).
– Not sure how to explain this, but the histogram needs to reflect the overall photo with all the layers included in real time.
– Spots tool visualizer.
– Sliders to control the Apple's RAW processing.
– A shortcut for adjusting the brush size.

TWO
– More sharpening tools.
– Visualizer for what's being sharpened, like the edges.
– Vectorscope w/skin tone indicator.
– Face refinements tool for isolating the face/skin (AI?).
– Lens correction.
– RBG Parade and waveform.
– Custom crop in aspect ratios, not in pixels.

THREE
– More shortcuts, and this.
– Soft proofing/color space.
– Edit metadata: copyright etc.
– HDR histogram with added highlight indicators.
– HDR Ranges visualizer, similar to the highlight/shadow warnings.
– SDR Preview and Tone Mapping from HDR.

Thanks for listening.

+1 for:
-highlights/shadows clipping indication
-proper slider values (WB in Kelvin, exposure in stops, etc.)
-raw processing sliders
-luminance sharpening mask/visualizer
-lens corrections independent from apple's raw processing

I support Roadhouse's other requests even though they are not big things I need.


I would also add:
-camera matching color profiles (I shoot Fuji, I haven't had any luck with fuji film sim LUTs, can't find anything that comes close to in-camera or even adobe/capture one profiles).

white balance in Kelvin

Yup, white balance not in Kelvin is annoying me right now. I hope this will be changed soon.

A way to rearrange the tools. e.g. I like to use the Curves tool first so would have that at the top.

Oh yes, I'm so badly missing the camera profiles. In the preview it's still there, because it's probably a JPEG saved during image creation, and then you open up the image… everything gone, and you are back to the basic RAW.

+1 to camera color profiles
