Kasper-V Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 As my laptop won't display RAW files, I run every new set of photos through a batch job to create jpeg thumbnails at 600 pixels wide. Because there's no tweaking done in development, I sometimes get some sad-looking results; fortunately, the RAW file will usually turn out OK with a bit of fiddling about. (Sorry -- that's a disrespectful way to describe the amazing capabilities of Affinity Photo! I mean, with some carefully considered image manipulation :))So here's a very under-exposed photo of a toucan, shot against a very bright sky. If I'd still been shooting in jpg, I'd have been very disappointed: there's very little room for improvement. Now here's the fidd manipulated version. I resized it to 800 px to post on Facebook; I'll do it full size for my portfolio ... but not today. pioneer, Alfred, jer and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alfred Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 What kind of Amazon World do you call that? Where are the books, the DVDs, the clothing, the groceries...?? :P Kasper-V 1 Quote Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.4.1 (iPad 7th gen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasper-V Posted June 26, 2017 Author Share Posted June 26, 2017 I do fiddling better than I do awesome, it must be admitted. But if I didn't like fiddling, I wouldn't have bought AP & AD ;) (BTW, I can get a tune out of a fiddle, but you really wouldn't like to hear it! I do rather better on the guitar.)
