M1GarandUSA Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Hi, For some reason, starting about a week or two ago, Affinity Photo now imports my raw files with a dull pale greenish tint. If I import the same photo in Photoshop CS17, it looks fine. I have color management turned on in both programs, converting Sony RAW from Adobe RGB (98) to ProPhoto. I am in Windows 10. Where do I start? I don't think Win 10 is color managing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1GarandUSA Posted December 5, 2017 Author Share Posted December 5, 2017 Something else is odd: If I open the raw file in Affinity Photo, it looks awful. If I export it and open the export in Photoshop, it looks fine. So, is it something related to how Affinity sends the image to the screen, and not actual file data being perverted?

Staff stokerg Posted December 5, 2017 Staff Share Posted December 5, 2017 Hi M1GarandUSA, Can you upload a sample RAW file to our Dropbox link here If you could also attach a screenshot of Preferences>Colour Management section of the Preferences i can get this looked into Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acdotme Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Was there ever a solution for this? I'm having the same thing from the sounds of it. Strangely only affects raw files in the desktop app - when I open in the iPad version of photo the colours appear as they should. To be clear, when I'm opening a raw file in the desktop version of photo it puts a green colour cast over the whole image which does not appear in any other raw processor I use (Lightroom, DXO or Photo for iPad). Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acdotme Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 @stokerg was there ever a resolution for this? This make the desktop version unusable as a RAW converter... and I only shoot RAW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acdotme Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 @M1GarandUSA not sure if this helps you, but I did some more investigating into this and I've found a solution to my problem with some dng / raw files. I noticed on the problem files when I zoomed in that there was a weird mosaic pattern which led me to look at post regarding demosaicing of raw files in AF. I've found out since that when you're in the develop module you can change the raw processor from Serif's to Apple's processing engine. You'll need to reopen the raw file with that setting changed as it doesn't apply it on the fly but as soon as I did that my files opened as expected. I guess during the dng conversion for some of my files something happened that AF can't read in their engine but switching it fixed the problem. Hope that helps!
