Nesteroff 0 Posted October 27, 2018 here is an example of photo from lightroom on PC: here is the same photo imported into Ipad pro 12.9 and opend in Affinity photo. on the both photos i have pulled up the shadows to the 100%. the question is: why affinity photo automatically applied Luminance \ noise reduction on my photo? I bought ipad pro 12.9 512GB for $ 1000 to edit photos on it. But now I understand that this is impossible. Why do you automatically apply any settings to RAW photos?

MEB 6,837 Posted October 28, 2018 Hi Nesteroff, Welcome to Affinity Forums Affinity Photo for iPad relies on iOS system level support - Apple (Core Image RAW) - to convert/process RAW's. We don't have much control over noise reduction or other processing done here. The only thing you can do is turn off the RAW Tone Curve applied to the image (in Photo Persona tap the Document icon and select Assistant - check the two bottom rows for available settings/options). 2 Nesteroff and Uncle Mez reacted to this Affinity Quick Reference | Common Feature Requests | Call for Camera Images Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DM1 412 Posted October 30, 2018 Can you upload a raw file that won't open. Mods can test and or get devs to check what is happening. 1 Nesteroff reacted to this IPad Pro 10.5 512GB iOS 12.1 Affinity Photo 1.6.11.85 Affinity Design 1.6.4.45 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Look: : this photo i took from under my bed. there was really dark place. Options which i use in lightroom: TEMP: 2300 TINT: -13 EXPOSURE: +3 SHADOWS: +100 that what i see in lightroom on PC: and here is a ZOOm in screenshot: you can see that little tiny pieces of hairs on my slippers, and a lot of details. AND HERE IS WHAT I SAW ON IPAD PRO: full image with the same settings: ZOOM in pic with less shadows: A little difference, right? AFFINITY ON PC WITH THE SAME SETTINGS: i was trying to synchronize the output view of the photo and here is affinity vs lightroom on pc: RAW DOWNLOAD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DM1 412 Posted October 30, 2018 Is affinity on pc set to using Apple raw engine or serifs raw engine? I agree it looks crap on iPad with Apple raw engine. 1 Nesteroff reacted to this IPad Pro 10.5 512GB iOS 12.1 Affinity Photo 1.6.11.85 Affinity Design 1.6.4.45 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nesteroff 0 Posted October 31, 2018 when I started my investigation, I didn’t know that it would all end in confrontation lightroom and affinity. but as we can see, lightroom on pc and ipad shows better results than affinity. PC AND IPAD LIGHTROOM - almost the same result. AFFINITY - very bad. so the conclusion is: 1. ipad can be used like a PRO instrument for raw editing. 2. affinity not for pro it is a marketing bubble. // for russian-speaking followers: 1. ipad можно использовать как про инструмент для редактирования raw файлов. 2. affinity как мы видим, показал ужасные результаты и является не более чем маркетинговым пузырём.

Lefteyeshooter 15 Posted November 2, 2018 Hm, this is in many ways an 'extreme' picture: 2300 kelvin, and as far as I can tell, taken in almost complete darkness. LR does a better job here, but does not mean Affinity Photo is a 'scam'. Instead of copying LR settings to Affinity, I would tweak optimum settings in Affinity Photo for optimal result. Don't compare apples with pears, pun intended... 1 Nesteroff reacted to this Dell XPS 8930 i8700 3.2GHz 16GB RAM GTX 1070 Main digital camera: Fuji X100s Analog cameras: Canon 1v (35mm) + Mamiya C220 (medium format)https://www.flickr.com/photos/ivanlietaert/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DM1 412 Posted November 2, 2018 Apples raw conversion engine (used by affinity) is the issue here. You should be complaining to Apple to improve their handling of raw in these extreme examples. Affinity might also consider providing option to use a raw converter as used in Lightroom?

James Zsigmond 3 Posted November 26, 2018 This issue is specific to Sony A7-A9 series raw files. I’ve also brought this issue up several months back, and it has still not been addressed. Affinity photo is useless for Sony Alpha camera users who wish to edit raw photos, it’s simply broken. 1 Jowday reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
