I can do a lot of basic editing in Photos, and it does support the Nik collection. Photos happily ingests all kinds of RAW photos, but mostly all I want is big TIFFs that I get from scanning negatives, the ability to adjust them and the ability to export them for printing, mailing, web posts etc. But I found it clunky and ended up doing something a bit crazy - using Photos! There is no support for. I worked with NeoFinder for a bit, and it does support Affinity’s layered files (.afphoto, like PS’s. You need a DAM, and Affinity doesn’t seem interested in making one.Nothing to stop you doing both things though.
#AFFINITY DESIGNER SALE 2022 UPDATE#
Plus, if I stopped paying the monthly ransome, would I be able to update to new versions to stay compatible with Apple’s OS changes? I didn’t want to risk it. I actually wanted all Adobe stuff off my machine as it was hogging the CPU and making things hot with some versions. An alternative would be to keep them in LR and rely on Adobe’s promise that you can always access them, but cannot edit further. I chose to assume I had made all the edits I would want to do and exported all of them as full-size high quality JPGs. Ken, I was in the same boat as you, but I made the jump. It is well worth the bundle price for the introductory universal license. I’ve been using the Affinity 2 suite since it was made available, and it appears that Serif continues to respond to the many requests it receives for enhancements and refinements. I laugh until I’m ready to throw up when I hear Adobe talking about the “common interface” shared by Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign-their teams have never been able to agree about anything from menu elements to keyboard shortcuts, and it is cringey to me that in 2022 Illustrator still uses a slew of vector tools where FreeHand used one to accomplish the same task. (I especially dislike that I can’t script Publisher or take advantage of the wide range of import filters that InDesign provides, but them’s the breaks.) What I like is that the Affinity teams don’t seem to be at war amongst themselves about a common interface. What it’s missing seems due more to the unwillingness of Serif to invest in areas that would only benefit a niche segment of their user base. The Affinity suite is much closer in concept to the professional-level tools of the Creative Cloud suite. I had the CS6 bundle, but unlike you did not subscribe when Adobe went down that road. I used Photoshop often, and hated-but-used Illustrator. I did a sidegrade for InDesign when it first came out around the turn of the century (!), and considered myself at expert level. Prior to that, I was happily using the usual suspects-PageMaker, FreeHand, and whatever photo utility I could scrounge. "So I decided to have a “blow out sale” to give people one last chance to enroll in my old courses, before I start making new ones.Thanks for the mention of this package Adam! I have a similarly dysfunctional relationship with Adobe that stretches back decades, when I purchased my first scanner and found it was bundled with Photoshop. "So I decided to have a “blow out sale” to give people one last chance to enroll in my old courses, before I start making new ones. Someone asked this question on their YouTube Channel.
What does this mean? Is Affinity Revolution closing, or simply pausing while it revamps all its advanced courses for v2 of the Affinity products? I guess the courses will need to be completely re-recorded to show the new UI, plus, in some cases, modified to teach and take advantage of new product capabilities. So please take advantage of this special offer before the courses are closed. But even after the sale ends, you will still have lifetime access to any courses you enroll in. Other than those courses, all of our other courses will be closed to new students. But don't worry, these courses are still included in the sale! Nothing unusual about that, but this caught my eye:Īfter the sale is over, we'll be closing all of our courses to new students, except our beginner courses for Affinity Photo, Affinity Designer, and Affinity Publisher. I notice that Affinity Revolution is having a sale, with all courses being sold at half price this month.
