I'm just moving over from Photoshop Elements, so I've got Culture Shock, but I'm enjoying the process.
I convert photographs to PNGs - a historic hangover from when I had trouble with support for CR2s. I notice that the PNGs produced by Affinity are noticeably darker than the PSE output, and darker than the CR2 originals, though I realise I can adjust everything.
More importantly, the files are about 4 times the size - 95MB as opposed to 23MB. (These are created from a 26MB CR2 file.)
I can see the case for storing the files uncompressed, to speed up processing, so is that what's happening, or have I missed something?
I'm running Affinity Photo 1.7.1 on a MacBook Pro, reading CR2 files created by a Canon EOS 700D.
