Like you I would love to move away from Adobe. Better or as good as Topaz IMHO.Ī clean house is a sign that my computer's broken. I have found, though, that the noise reduction feature on Affinity is really good, surprisingly so. I don't want to rely on a company that changes it's terms of service or prices every few months. I refuse to be dinged monthly for Adobe though. I do love Affinity for the price, but as a long time PS user, yeah, there are some really irritating attribute with Affinity - I don't know if that's due to copyright on PS tools or what.

This is maddening! How can a photo editing application be so bad at something so basic?! I went to the Affinity forum where people complained about this for years. So I have to go into the drop-down menu again, change "unconstrained" to "original ratio". But no, surprise!, it's back to "unconstrained". So, I open the crop tool again, thinking that as I cropped it to the original ratio it would automatically be set to that again for that photo.
I have to go into the drop-down menu, change "unconstrained" to "original ratio". It is set to "unconstrained" as default and there is no way to change it and what's more it constantly reverts back to that. But before I could do any real editing, I ran into this annoying thing with the crop tool. Now I know, I have always used Photoshop, and obviously another application will do things differently. Dedicated raw shooters will tend to find it lacking.I bought Affinity Photo last year and I thought it was time to finally look at it and try to edit an image. The Develop persons is the weak link in the otherwise very capable Affinity Photo.

I get far more satisfying results using all the capabilities of PhotoLab and exporting to 16 bit TIFF files for use in Affinity Photo when additional processing in that software is needed. It is a light weight raw processor by comparison. Where Develop falls short is not in the quality of it edits but because of its significant lack of features. I can agree that each of the best raw processors does basically the same thing and each of them can render somewhat different results. That is your choice, but to my mind, regardless of your background, the Develop persona needs a lot of work to be competitive with the best raw processors available today. For you the Develop persons ia apparently more than adequate. Based on your comments you do minimal edits in the Develop persona and are happy with your results in the Photo persona. I own and use Affinity Photo and have had extensive experience for years with a number of raw processors including my current favorite, PhotoLab 4 Elite. You made some comments with which I strongly disagree and I responded to them.
#Affinity photo forum 32 bit#
I do minimal changes in the Develop Persona in 32 bit Unbounded color space and do the remainder in Photo and my results are far superior than anything I have achieved in any of the other programs, so I now am exclusive to Photo although I do like Deep Prime from PureRAW when I need it. In Affinity you can simply develop with no changes and go right to Photo where you can edit non destructively and solve your complaint. To make a statement like: (“For those of us raw shooters with a lot of experience with the premier raw processors”) You ASSume I have no Experience shooting RAW you are very mistaken! I have over 40 years in photography film and digital (The last 28 Professionally), I’ve used a dozen RAW processors including Lightroom, Capture One, Photolab, On 1, Rawtherapee, Darktable and Affinity etc… Each and everyone does basically the same thing and each and everyone can render different results based on each manufacturers RAW files so no one is perfect.
