I am new to Affinity Photo (MacBook pro Desktop version) switching from Photoshop-Bridge-Adobe Raw processing of my bird photographs. I typically have 100 to 200 images shoot out to select 10 to 15 files for final development. I am sorely missing the Auto-exposure and auto-white balance as the starting points. Saving the Preset for applying development settings to 2 to 4 similar photos is bit cumbersome. I realize that this may be due to my inability to find the right tool set at this learning stage. Please help with the following points:
1. Can I apply auto-exposure and auto-white-balance to a raw image (get a starting point for exposure, black point, contrast, highlights, shadows, vibrance and color saturation)
2. Is there an easy and quick way to copy and apply development settings from one to another image.
3. Is there a local-adjustment brush to change the exposure to a specific small point within the image, for example, brighten the area around the eyes.
