Pixelated, low-resolution Image loads from raw Nikon file

[Mokuka]

Affinity version: 1.8.3.180

iPadOS: 13.4.1

iPad: 12.9 inch iPad Pro 3rd generation

 Camera: Nikon D500 raw file

 Issue: Whenever uploading a raw file it loads as a very low resolution image and highly pixelated. The raw file can’t be processed correctly as loaded.  The issue only occurred after updating to the latest version of Affinity. I’m not sure what version I used before but I had not updated Affinity for months prior. I tried loading previous raw files I worked with on Affinity that had worked successfully before the update and now they too no longer loads correctly. I also see an error message when the image is loaded “Assigned Profile: Photo iPad assigned your working profile (sRGB IEC61966-2.1) to this unprofiled document “

Where are you 'uploading' from? It sounds like you are only loading the jpg preview associated with the raw file. Have you set photos to 'Keep originals'?

Hi both,

We are aware of an issue with Portrait NEF files not loading from Apple Photos. If that's the case, the workaround would be to export them from Apple Photos and load them locally/icloud

Hi All - 

The workaround worked for me. I was able to import the raw file correctly when I loaded it from iCloud. Loading from Apple Photos is still buggy. Note that for some raw files they do load correctly from Apple photos.
