[Affinity Photo Gradient Tool]

Hi All,

 

I have just purchased Affinity Photo last night, usually i am using Canon DPP3/4 for basic photo editing. I shot Raw for family pictures only (just for hobby, not professional). Before this i had some trial with Capture One Pro and played around with the gradient tools and layering, seems to be straight forward to understand.

 

Can anybody help to post a basic video tutorial for basic photo editing workflow:

1. Download image from memory card. I think this would be manually downloaded to a folder

2. Open the file in Affinity Photo.

3. Basic editing for overall sharpness, exposure, white balance, saturation.

4. Gradient tools (e.g. to reduce brightness/exposure on the bright sky without affecting the main subject of the photo).

5. Minor local exposure adjustment using paint brush tools.

6. Export to JPEG.

 

I have some difficulties in understanding how the gradient tools work in Affinity Photo.

 

Thanks.

 

Br,
