Aperture was my main software program along with NIK plugins. I never deleted iPhotos so basically I download to iPhoto and transferred to Aperture to correct. I love Affinity however don't want to give up Aperture or Nik. Particularly need Aperture for storage and cataloguing. Have been warned by others not to use Photos for different reasons. Am thinking what difference does it make if I download to Photos or iPhoto. Question--when using Affinity on Raw it works fine. If I transfer a previously edited photo say 24MB after Aperture and perhaps NIK it is reduced to 200-400 kb after editing in Affinity. This is my reading if I send the photo back to Aperture or out in an email. Am I doing something wrong in my initial setup. I drag and drop. Set to photo, custom, pixels, RGB Adobe. Occasionally when there is no cropping I will set to 18x12. I work with a Nikon 7100. Thanks, Daisy PS Does Affinity work better if Photos is the storage site.
