So, after all that you may ask "Do I need it?".
Calibrated histogram with eV, L* and Adams Zone system scales. Monochrome mode - a scientific way to produce black&white, sepia and other kinds of monochrome pictures based on measurements of actual photo papers made by Iliah Borg. Local Contrast - a tool based on HiRaLoAm technique by Dan Margulis to give your images more contrast without heavy impact on overall tonality as with regular contrast. Highlights recovery - a simple tool to restore clipped channels if present (e.g. Actually Half is not interpolation - this is a half resolution recombination when four single-colored pixels (RGBG) combined to one RGB, very fast, color accurate, but at price of lost resolution. 
Interpolation - RPP supports 3 methods at the moment.Having done this, you should finally be able to obtain that dearly-looking film-like tonality in your pictures. Brightness and contrast - these represent my and Iliah Borg’s attempts to create tone curve adjustments based on actual film density measurements in different development modes.I'm trying to keep up with Color Science and using a lot more sophisticated approach. Saturation - very tricky operation, because it has to account for specifics in human's color perception and traditionally it's implemented with very crude methods.

Built-in support for camera profiling with excellent free and open sourced ArgyllCMS. Compressed compensation allows to preserve highlights in more film-like style instead of clipping used in traditional linear exposure compensation. Linear and compressed exposure compensations - another very sensitive step, should use high precision math to preserve shadows and highlights and it is almost impossible to make it properly during post-processing in Photoshop. RPP supports various ways of working with white balance - automatic detection, “as shot” (taken from camera), custom white balance from neutral areas and color tone adjustments on “cold - warm” scale. 4-channel white balance - this is probably the most important operation in Raw processing and it has to be applied at very early stages. You may use RPP for these carefully chosen operations: See “Integration” chapter in “How to use” page. it has Adobe Lightroom version 2, 3, 4 and 5 plugin and can work directly with Photoshop. RPP is easy to integrate with other tool though, f.e. #RAW PHOTO PROCESSOR RPP REVIEW FULL#
So this is NOT a full featured photo processing package, you may need Photoshop or some other tool to apply sharpness, cropping and so on. Think of RPP as a development machine in terms of film photography - first you have to develop your roll right, then do whatever you want with it. We just got fed up with those converters made by programmers for their upper management :)
#RAW PHOTO PROCESSOR RPP REVIEW FOR MAC OS X#
A Raw converter for Mac OS X (10.4-10.11), supporting almost all available digital Raw formats made for photographers by a photographer-software engineer with unmeasurable amount of help and tutoring from my friend, professional photographer Iliah Borg.
