That Realcamera app looks just like what octane has built inside the Tonemapping feature - I mean the names of the presets are the same - can you really get a better image? Looks great.. only thing it affects the whole image..

Still if you need to adjust parts of the image you have to use something like Nik tools - I have a photographer friend who also recommends it..

And that Motiva colimo plugin - thanks for the input - there are always bits like that that are missing from presentations, they also mentioned it works on your favorite renderer - misleading probably..
Well if it takes 5 times longer to render - you could probably argue what's the point then - you could probably render that many times anyway

To me the advantage of using realcamera is the agility of the system, its faster than the octane built in tool, and easier to use. Also you can keep the raw render to generate variations of it, its more flexible and richer in features.

Many thanks for these tips, very useful !
