Images way too dark


Recommended Posts

Downloaded a trial version (which is 10 days only) version 1.7 for Windows 10. Opening raw files from a Canon 5D MK II, a 6D MK II or a Lumix G81 the images are displayed way too dark in the develop persona (arround 2-3 EV), even though no settings were applied so far. The histogram seems to be almost the same in Affinity, LR or Luminar.

Where is the error?

Hey tuxoche, welcome to the Affinity Forums.

I grabbed two Canon 5D Mk II samples and they are opening the same in Affinity Photo and Photoshop. See screenshot at the bottom.

What do you normally open them in? Could you attach a sample so I can look into this for you?

Also, have you changed any of the settings in the Assistant manager?

I'm noticing the same issue. In my example, though not as drastic, you can see the raw file in View NX-i (Nikon) is slightly overexposed. The same raw file in Affinity is darker. And yes, it's set to 16-bit. I have my camera set to neutral so there should be nothing applied to the raw file.

No, in the bottom right of Develop persona, there should be a panel called "32-Bit Preview", or "32P" if it's been shortened. If you can't see it, try using the View | Studio | 32-Bit Preview menu item.

Ok did that the 32p preview show no image but the naviagtor shows a preview which is ok ?
