I wish c1 and AF would merge or make a partnership and make this whole thing easier. They are the two biggest alternatives, it would be a huge blow to adobe if they partnered
What I'd be most interested in learning - how to use Affinity Photo to do a Focus Merge, HDR Merge, or Panoramic Stitch (for raw images straight out of camera), then open the resultant merged files (hopefully in Raw?) in Capture One.
Thank you so much for this fantastic tutorial. I made the mistake the first couple of times and selected "open with" and couldn't figure out why the edit didn't carry across so I searched for this video to find the answers.
What a faff but thanks, I found it useful having just acquired affinity photo. It would be so much easier if capture one gave you the ability to have a proper patch tool!
Hello, Thomas. This is a great video! I have capture one and now I'm leaning on purchasing AP. As I am doing my research about this software I had a question about HDR stacking. Are users able to open their raw files in a session or catalog in C1 and then select multiple photos to send to AP for HDR stacking? Or do users have to merge the raw files for HDR stacking in AP first and then send to C1 for any other adjustments?
I have Capture One21 and have just downloaded Affinity Photo. Having watched several C1 to AP workflow videos, I'm still at a loss. I followed the process of 'edit with' (both ways) and all it does is load a variant .tif image under the .RAF image that was being used. Both applications are open. Help! 🤷🏻♂️
Mac version is fine - no issues - pretty fast. As for why not just use affinity, well, Affinity photo has no asset management side - so there's one reason. I would also argue that for the most part Capture One's raw processing is better. Many people want a pixel-editor companion to capture one's raw processor and organiser software .
I haven't used AP yet and am not clear on how its editing 'modes' work. You did a bit of work on the raw image as first imported and _then_ switched to 'develop'. Why is it done that way? Thanks.
How do 'non-develop mode' adjustments differ from 'develop mode' adjustments? Is one of them non-destructive raw editing and the other destructive pixel editing?
@@mikearst2940 Its a bit too complicated to answer here. I am planning on doing a blog post about this at some time. But the short version - basically - the Develop persona works much like the camera raw plug-in/module works in Photoshop. It's non-destructive until you hit develop. After that Affinity photo works much like photoshop. It's a mix of both destructive and non-destructive (adjustment layers etc) - it really depends on what you want to do. For example, you can composite objects, remove objects and so on - paint - blur etc, all things that that you couldn't do in the develop persona. So esentially, the Develop persona is the RAW Processor - and the rest of it - works much like photoshop would.

Really wish you could edit in AF with something like the inpainting brush then send it back over to C1 as a raw file.
Thank you Thomas! Great info. Enjoying the tutorials and your kind help.
Great video 👍

Can you say something about using C1 Express with Affinity.
Cant you get the same quality photo with just using affinity photo?

Is it possible to open BKT images to affinity photo to merge them, and than send to edit into the capture one software? As a raw HDR image?
How is the Mac version of Affinity? I'm just curious why you wouldn't want to work with only Affinity?

@@thomasfitzgerald But Capture One is £299 pounds?
I am assuming it works the same on windows. do you have on1 raw ?

It’s basically the same as photoshops camera raw

@@thomasfitzgerald Thanks for this explanation. I'll look forward to the blog post. I can see that I'm in for hours of study to learn this program.
Thanks!
