![]() It would be wonderful if you could discuss your usage patterns and approach with Affinity Photo. They also have an open attitude to Customer Beta versions of the upcoming release version, anyone with a license can also activate the Beta version and try out the new stuff, and provide feedback until they release it as a formal version update. Their forums are also a good source of information, and they have a huge number of excellent short video tutorials. Affinity Photo (AP) deserves more attention than it's getting on LuLa.īesides, there may be other folks who know a bit about AP, or use an alternative approach to address certain challenges. No problem (if time permits), but let's do it in a publicly accessible thread so that others can benefit from the exchange and I do not have to repeat my reactions in PMs from different people. With newer hardware, it becomes only more likely that things keep running, only faster. I think that the demo will run as expected, but there is only one way of making sure. Quote from: Bart_van_der_Wolf on April 24, 2019, 08:12:14 am Yes, I also use CS6 and NeatImage as a Plugin (not as a standalone application). I have the app but there are a few things I cannot get around so I'll have a couple of questions for you if you don't mind. I believe we have that in common.ĮDIT: I'll be in touch sometime soon re Affinity Photo. They also advised to download the demo version just to make sure the plugin will work in PS-CS6, my preferred version. I am planning to upgrade the GPU soon so that should mitigate the speed "issue" I believe. It did mention that the app wouldn't use the somewhat ancient GPU in my MacPro 2012, but it would work with the CPU quite well, albeit perhaps a bit slow. I received a very inclusive reply that boiled down to their opinion that it should work very well. I sent an inquiry to their "Support" department with all of the information they would need to let me know if the app would work properly on my setup. In my exploration of their site I read a bit about creating ISO Profiles, so that is something I'll do once I have the app installed and running as expected. ![]() It does have a huge number of adjustments you can use to set up depending on the results you want.Īnd of course the size of your images does make a difference in processing times. I actually use it inside a VM with 6 cores set and it runs quite fast there but years ago on a slower machine I would simply set it running overnight. It can also use all the CPU cores you have on your machine if you let it - there is a provision in the options menu to set the number of cores used. The one good thing about Neat Image is the capability to batch process hundreds of images in one go. I can usually get a quality rating for my profiles of 98 upwards which gives the best results. The main thing you must do with it is prepare correct profiles for every ISO on the cameras you are using. I use the standalone version and there is no need to upgrade your GPU. In Studio, we’ve thought about what common adjustments would look like if they were designed today, and updated them to their most modern and useful forms.I've used this software for many years and, until JPEG to RAW came along was my #1 choice for NR.īut now, since Topaz seem to have totally destroyed that program, Neat Image will be used again. Most image editor tools are the same: your Exposure in one editor is the same Exposure in another. If it doesn’t contribute to the vision of creating singularly beautiful images through post-processing, then we’re not including it. There’s a lot of photo editors out there that help you manage your workflow and make minor contrast adjustments. ![]() That’s why you won’t find library management, design tools, batch editing, or other common “image editor” tools in Studio. It’s for creating works that push the bounds of your artistic vision the few that you know you’ll look back upon in years as one of your best creations. Studio is the editor to use when you want jaw-dropping images and you’re not afraid to spend the time to get them. It’s designed specifically around the artisanal post-processing workflow of carefully crafting a single image to your vision. This starts after you select your image and ends when you export your finished work. Topaz Studio 2 has only one purpose: creative photo editing. Edit your images beautifully with powerful filters and frictionless masking in a fine-tuned non-destructive layer workflow.
