Wooqosh Posted November 16, 2022 Posted November 16, 2022 Hi, I've been using AffinityPhoto to process raw files from my Nikon D7500 for over a year now, and today for the first time I've faced very strange issue. I took few night photos of a stone gate highlighted with violet light. When opening the file with AffinityPhoto I observe some pinkish dye and lack of smooth tonal transitions. The image is displayed properly with Nikon NX Studio and using MacOS picture viewer. In AffinityPhoto I managed to get rid of the pinkish dye after playing with 'RAW output format' and 'Tone curve' settings in Develop Assistant. But I cannot get smooth tonal transitions as I can see it in NX Studio. I attach screenshots below. If that is important, I work on Mac Mini M1. Do you have any idea how to display these raws properly in AF? AffinityPhoto (version 1.10.5) NX Studio Quote
Dan C Posted December 8, 2022 Posted December 8, 2022 Hi @Wooqosh, Welcome to the Affinity Forums Thanks for your report and our sincerest apologies for the delayed response here. We are exceptionally busy following the release of V2 and we thank you for your continued patience and understanding here. I can confirm this is a known issue with certain purple tones in RAW files within Affinity Photo, which is logged with our developers as a bug. I will be sure to 'bump' this log with your report now. In the meantime, you may find better results using the AppleCore RAW engine - you can select this in the Develop Assistant, then reload your RAW file for the new engine to be used. I hope this helps!
