firstdefence Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 The next release 2.5.5 will be a bug fix update, as far as I am aware there isn't a update for the camera raw list in there.

Staff DWright Posted August 23 Staff Share Posted August 23 Hi @rangel28, If you shoot in standard NEF RAW format rather than the new NEF HE/HE* RAW format then Affinity Photo can open the RAW image. rangel28 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangel28 Posted August 23 Author Share Posted August 23 Hi DWright, Thanks for the information. I don't have the camera yet (will be getting it in about a week) so I will shoot in the standard NEF RAW format. Old Bruce 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conrad Hoffman Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Affinity Photo appears to open the Z6iii RAW images fine, but the colors are very desaturated and the sliders don't move far enough to get things back to normal. I would have thought the files were the same as the original Z6, but it doesn't seem to be the case. See the comparison in the attached screen shot. Z6iii is on the right. All camera settings were similar or identical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron P. Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 Could you check the Develop Assistant to see if you have Apply Tone Curve selected or Take No Action. It seems that you might have the latter, Take No Action.

Conrad Hoffman Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 I tried both no action and tone curve. Seems to make zero difference, unlike what's shown above. Exited and relaunched a couple times to be sure, but no real change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl123 Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 Can you upload the same RAW image you said was desaturated?

Ron P. Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 I downloaded it and had a look in AP retail and current beta. I'm seeing the same as you. I had to really push the Saturation, along with the others, Exposure, Brightness, Blacks to get it to look more normal. I also opened in FastRaw Viewer, where it appeared more like I would (and you of course) expect it to. FRV uses the RAW file, not just a jpeg like some other viewers, and the DSLRs do. So I'm guessing AP has a problem with that Nikon RAW format. Quote Affinity Photo 2.5..; Affinity Designer 2.5..; Affinity Publisher 2.5..; Affinity2 Beta versions.

Ron P. Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 Using Corel PSP 2023, I could open it, so long as I used their Camera RAW Lab. The file was desaturated, just like in AP. I don't know why their AfterShot Pro refused to open it. Quote Affinity Photo 2.5..; Affinity Designer 2.5..; Affinity Publisher 2.5..; Affinity2 Beta versions.
