Comparing Two RAW Files Side by Side in the Light Table

digiKam's Light Table feature works in a separate window to easily compare images. It works with all supported image formats including RAW files.

The Main Icon-View Context Menu Used to Add Items to the Light Table

To use the Light Table you must first select a set of images to examine with Light Table. Select one or several images in any view from the main window, then select Item ‣ Place onto Light Table CTRL+L to place the selected images on the Light Table and open the Light Table window. Selecting Item ‣ Add to Light Table CTRL+SHIFT+L will add the selected images to the images that are already on the Light Table. You can also select Add to Light Table from the context menu for the selected images.

You can quickly access the Light Table from the digiKam main window using Tools ‣ Light Table SHIFT+L or by clicking the Light Table button in the Main Toolbar.
