Dear Affinity team, 

I love your product you have made an easy to use product I have begun at the same time trying to learn Lightroom and affinity. Affinity is far easier. But is very frustrating to see people asking for affinity to get the tool to allow us to manage colour by clicking on the grey reference in the photos. For products like spyder pro 5 colour checker. Clicking on the grey card in photo etc. 

You have a powerful tool but the fundamental of colour is guess work. 

Please please make it possible for people to be able to manage colour workflow. 

I cannot believe this hasn’t been a priority every aspect about every application is colour, photography is all about colours. Getting them right, correct for printing. 

You have given us a powerful tool but the one thing that’s most important is missing. Users need to be able to adjust colour just like lightroom, and even use the colour checkers that spyder pro 5 uses. 

 

Thanks

Please let’s talk about how we can make this happen. Please just don’t say we’re we get asked this all the time. 

This is the most important feature that is not part of affinity photo and we need it. It needs to be discussed.

[gonecamping75]

Users please ad your comments we need ‘this feature, if your editing photos you need to be able to set the grey off a reference.

In Photoshop, combined with Edit -> Fade, it is a crucial and lightning fast white balancing tool. Also crucial for working with an X-RITE card. Yeah, so it is a glaring omission in Affinity Photo.

[gonecamping75]

They should include spyder series as well, I don’t use xrite. But they should include all.

+1 I use Spyder Pro 5 myself

[gonecamping75]

Yeah the spyder products are good. Needed if you use a lab to pint your photos. My lab use the Sam calibration so it’s good can’t wait until affinity offers its use in affinity programs

I asked the question back in 2019. It’s now 2022 with no response from moderators or anyone from affinity photo.
