r palser Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 When I import my raw file (RW.2) into affinity Develop Persona, the dimensions of the image (pixel sizes) have changed and with this the edge of the image has been cut off in comparison to say Adobe bridge. Why has this happened and is there anything I can do to right this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why has this happened and is there anything I can do to right this? When you say the pixel dimensions have changed, what are you comparing Affinity with? You imply that Bridge shows more pixels. What are the pixel dimensions given by Affinity and by Bridge? Different raw processors deal with the pixels at the edges of an image differently. These pixels are typically less reliable than the rest. John Quote Windows 10, Affinity Photo 1.10.5 Designer 1.10.5 and Publisher 1.10.5 (mainly Photo), now ex-Adobe CC CPU: AMD A6-3670.

r palser Posted August 7, 2019 Author Share Posted August 7, 2019 Thanks John. Bridge shows the image as 5184 x 3888 px , Affininity as 5208 x 3904 px. I guess its what you say but I still lose a portion of my composition which obviously not what I intended, and as bridge can show what I assume to be the whole image, I would have hoped Affinity would too.

Staff stokerg Posted August 7, 2019 Staff Share Posted August 7, 2019 @r palser Can you let me know what model camera you are using and if you can, attach a RAW file. If you see my reply here we should really be showing more of the image and not less Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From your quoted numbers, Affinity is showing you more, not less, of the image.

FWIW, I accidentally opened your _1000400.RW2 file directly into Topaz Studio.app version 1.14.0 (not the plug-in). This is the free 1.x version that comes with 10 adjustments. I no longer use the plugin version with Affinity Photo due to some issues that are not important here. What is important is it also shows the image as 5208 x 3904 px, but initially the Topaz version shows more content on the edges than does Affinity Photo: Topaz: Affinity: I eventually figured out why: I have the Development Assistant in Photo set to use the Serif RAW engine and to apply lens corrections. When I change that to "Take no action," I get results identical to the Topaz version, or nearly so. I don't know if this is 'by design' in Photo or maybe due to an error in the lens correction database built into Photo, but I'm sure the staff can find out more about that....

r palser Posted August 8, 2019 Author Share Posted August 8, 2019 Brilliant, thank you R C-R. I did as you said with the lens correction and got the same result. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
