I think you should open and develop both of your raw images, then drag one onto the other. Trying to "place" a raw photo may not do all the development steps as you'd want them done, much as batch developing raw images produces a different result than manually developing them.

Thank you for the suggestion. I will try that out.

What method are you using to add the second photo (place, copy & paste, something else)? Is the resolution (dpi) the same for both photos?

I am using place to add the second photo. Both photos are the same resolution. Could the issues be because both photos are raw format (ARW for my camera)? When I begin the edit, I open the photo that I want to use as the background (the reveal photo), click develop, and then use place to bring in the photo from which I want to erase a portion of, revealing the contents of the reveal photo.

Hello, 

I am relatively new to Affinity Photo. I want to do an edit similar to the included edit of the car. I have two photos, one that will serve as the background and one that will be in the foreground and be erased from. When I try to add the second photo as a layer, it does not snap in its original dimensions and appears to have barrel distortion. I have not found any tutorials that discuss these topics/issues.
