Thank you!

 

As far as I can understand, it is impossible to access my D850's settings with Affinity, is that right? The only thong I can do is trying to get "closer" to the picture I originally created "in camera". Is that right?

 

So, I have two questions:

1- Is this possible with other cameras listed as "Affinity compatible"? If so, will it ever be possible with D850's raw files?

2- Will I be losing much by editing from jpegs (I take pictures in raw, but with a jpeg copy)?

 

Thanks!

Hi SimãoVP,

Welcome to Affinity Forums

To change the RAW engine used by Affinity Photo, go to menu View ▸ Assistant Manager... (in Photo Persona), click the Develop Assistant... button on the bottom left to switch to the Develop Assistant then change the first dropdown RAW Engine to Apple (Core Image RAW). Next time you open a RAW file it will use the Apple engine.

It's not working

What version of OS X are you using and what version of Affinity Photo (APh) are you using?

 

The D850 isn't in the supported RAW Camera's list Here nor is the Canon 200D.

 

This is the Lens Support page: Lens Support

OSX: High Sierra 10.13.3

Affinity: 1.6.7

The Nikon D850 RAW format is supported by the Apple RAW engine (on their latest MacOS), but only the Nikons RAW L-Format here. So if you change prefs settings in APhoto on MacOS to use the Apple engine instead of APhotos own it should normally work. - Other than that to get out more precise support for Nikon specific cam settings like D-Lighting and Picture Control etc. use Nikon's own NX-D raw converter.

Thank you!

But how can I do that, I have no idea...

Hello,

 

A rather strange thing's happening when opening raw files with affinity!

I have a Canon 60D, a canon 200D and a Nikon D850. I shoot mainly raw and am used to make some minor editing of my photos. Most of the times I'm already satisfied with the "in camera" result and just make some minor adjustments later on in my computer. So, I use the camera profiles to adjust parameters (like contrast, saturation, ecc) and then export the raw (or nef) files to my computer. When opening (with affinity) the files from my 60D, there are no differences between the osx preview software and the image I see in Affinity; meaning that Affinity can, at least to a certain degree, read the profiles and adjustments the user makes in a canon 60D. But when I open my files from the canon 200D or from the Nikon D850, the raw files are simply flat, with no customization what so ever (in the preview software they look just like in the camera or if they were jpegs)! 

You'll probably answer me by explaining that a raw file is "raw", etc, anf I know that, but it's very useful to have a software that can read the changes you make "in camera", otherwise you're throwing a big and beautiful part of your work in the bin.

 

What can I do to solve this problem?

Am I doing something wrong?

 

Thank you in advance for your attention,

Simão
