Philippe_75 Posted July 16, 2021 Posted July 16, 2021 Hi all, When importing some pictures in Affinity Photo I can see a red dot which appears in the middle of the picture which was not present on the initial picture. Below are the 2 same images: 1. The original duck in Photos 2. The imported duck in Affinity Photo Does anyone have seen this problem before? How can we fix it? I am using a Nikon D610 and my version of Affinity Photo is 1.9.2.236 Quote

Some camera software may automatically 'correct' highlighted pixels. Affinity will show highlights and clipped shadows as red or yellow so it may be that? You can toggle show highlights and shadows on or off in the Commands menu. Quote M1 IPad Air 10.9/256GB lpadOS 17.1.1 Apple Pencil (2nd gen).

Philippe_75 Posted July 17, 2021 Author Posted July 17, 2021 I tried them all but it did not change anything, the red dot is still there after the import from Photos 😞 Quote
DM1 Posted July 18, 2021 Posted July 18, 2021 Just the one photo from that camera with red dot? Could you attach the raw image to the post for further testing?

Philippe_75 Posted July 18, 2021 Author Posted July 18, 2021 Unfortunately no, it appears on other pictures as well. See below another picture with the same behavior as well as the original raw files. FIL_5437.NEF FIL_5438.NEF Quote

I suspect the issue is a pixel on the sensor as it appears in same location. Your camera software may remove this. Affinity shows all image data hence it is showing up. Easy to fix with inpainting brush or blemish removal tools. Quote M1 IPad Air 10.9/256GB lpadOS 17.1.1 Apple Pencil (2nd gen).

Philippe_75 Posted July 22, 2021 Author Posted July 22, 2021 Thanks for your feedback, I contacted Nikon France who had my camera just before I started to go on vacations and when I talked about the red dots they told me to bring back the camera to the store for another check. Looks like they may have done something bad on my sensor in the end. When I return home early in August I’ll check that and keep you all posted about the results 😉 DM1 1 Quote
