Wow a lot of answers and somehow a depate on principles. I've just found out that in "Capture NX-D" (the Nikon Software) this aberrations are removed from the RAW file with the option "Farbquerfehler". To be honest it's ok for me when Affinity shows the photo as it is (without any corrections). In my opinion this is much better than a software which is doing a lot in the packground and you don't have any idea what the software is doing with the picture. It can be OK when the software is doing always he correct way... but it's not ok when the software is doing too much on the RAW file and you don't like what it's doing. I just started using Affinity and I really like it! Furthermore I prefere to support Affinity much more than the big ones (such as Photoshop or Lightroom... I don't want to pay a monthly amount... I want to buy the software --> so I'm sorry to Photoshop or Lightroom... for me you are PAST). As long as Affinity is improving step by step it's absolutely OK for me. So this is also a request to Affinity to improve the removal of chromatic aberration. It's ok when aberrations are visible when you import the picture (and when the picture is 100% as it is out of the RAW)... but there should be an option which really removes it (I know there is one... but it is not really doing the job). Furthermore when I use the lens correction it really blurs the image (this his not the case when I disable the lens correction). So please go for it and make this better. Edit: I also know that it's possible to remove aberrations with "Farbsäume entfernen". But this should be easier. So just a flag you can enable and than aberrations are removed. In principle as you already have it... but it should work better. I really want to have everything in ONE software... RAW import and picture editing. And it would be great if Affinity will be excellent for both parts!

Thanks for your reply. I was also able eliminating it with "Farbsäume entfernen". In other words: The question is not how to eliminate it. The question is: Why do I have this purple aberrations when opening the RAW in Affinity (without doing any lens correction) while I don't have it in PS, Lightroom or Capture NX-D (also without any lens correction)

Hi I've a question regarding "chromatic aberration". When I'm importing the RAW files from my Nikon Z6 in Affinity, I often have quite strong visible purple chromatic aberration (visible in screenshot of attached PDF). Earlier I was working with photoshop or lightroom and I never had it that extreme. I had no correction enabled... neither in Affinity, neither in Photoshop. Also when opening in Capture One or in Nikon-Capture-NX-D: Absolutely no chromatic aberration visible. Is something wrong in my Affinity settings? First I thought that Photoshop already changed something in the RAW picture. But this isn't the case. And as I don't see this chromatic aberration in all other programs, I think it has to be something Affinity specific. Operating system: Nikon Z6, Windows 10, Affinity 1.8.3.641 Attached also the RAW if you want to play around with it. Thanks already in advance for some help. Thom Affinity.pdf DSC_0036.NEF

Dear all I had exactly the same prolem. Affinity always crashed when trying to create a panorama. Sometimes while rendering it... sometimes when cropping it. Sooner or later it crashed. But it worked with the setting: Performance --> Rendering --> WARP. But WARP somehow had other disadvantages (slow, pictures seemed somehow foggy, ...). But when WARP works, the problem needs to be somehow my GPU. Just reinstalling the NVIDIA driver did not help because I've chosen the wrong driver. It's important not reinstalling the "Game-Ready-Driver (GRD)", you need the "Studio-Driver (SD)". I have a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER and with the following procedure it worked: 1) Download the STUDIO DRIVER from the NVIDIA page 2) Install this driver --> Important select "Custom installation" and then the option to clean current installations. Then you are done and it should work (at least this was the solution in my case). I hope this helps other Affinity users as well. Happy panorama stitching! Thom
