HobbyCrazed Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Hello. I’m interested in getting and learning to use Affinity Photo, but first have a couple questions… (1) Can I use the Develop Persona to develop files that are not RAW (such as JPEG’s)? (2) Does the Develop Persona have a vectorscope? Where I'm coming from if your interested... I have been out of shooting photos for a while, but I used to use Adobe Camera Raw for both RAW and JPEG’s. I like it but there’s no vectorscope. I used to use a vectorscope when color grading video in NLE’s, and found it to be a huge help when getting the skin tone right (especially if I shot without also shooting a grey card or color chart in the same light). Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstdefence Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 1. You can open a Jpeg and then select Develop Persona. 2. Yes Develop Persona does have a vector scope...

HobbyCrazed Posted August 17, 2020 Author Share Posted August 17, 2020 OK, nice. I see the skin tone line on the vectorscope. Thanks. That answers my questions. Alfred 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aad Slingerland Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Just did read this and it made me curious. What is a vector scope and where is it used for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
