Petar Petrenko Posted May 22, 2019 Posted May 22, 2019 Hi, can anyone explain how worthwhile is the investment in some PS plugn-ins like Topaz Labs or Nik Collection. What I mean is: are there any features from Topaz Labs, DXO Nik Collection... already implemented into Photo (not as plug-ins) and how good is that done by Affinity Team.

John Rostron Posted May 22, 2019 Posted May 22, 2019 The control point tools in the Nik plugins are unique and cannot always be emulated in Affinity's tools. One plugin I would like to see working in Affinity is 4N6's Color Deconvolution plugin. It looks to be able to do wondrous things that I cannot see Affinity doing by itself. I also find Topaz's AI Clean works wonders with scanned slides. John Quote Windows 11, Affinity Photo 2.4.2 Designer 2.4.2 and Publisher 2.4.2 (mainly Photo). CPU: Intel Core i5 8500 @ 3.00GHz.

I want to know how many features of the above mentioned software are implemented (if any) and how good.
