Make sure you use a lossless format such as TIFF (16 or since you were recently using ON1 Raw, I'm curious if you've compared ON1 2020 version with DT 3.0 "rc" version that was just released? I am a big fan of both Rawtherapee and DT, using both for a couple years along with Digikam.
RAW THERAPEE VS DARKTABLE FULL
It's not full integration, but it does work and keeps your Affinity Photo edits grouped together in Darktable with the original. some info here: If you are at all technically minded you can edit the script to change references in the displayed text from "gimp" to "external editor" although this is not needed for this to work. Works a treat (on my Win 10 machine - no direct experience of any other OS). Then in Darktable you select the file you want to edit in AP, use the new export option which opens up the file in AP, do your edits, save and close AP and the new image is automatically imported back into DT and grouped with the original source image.
RAW THERAPEE VS DARKTABLE INSTALL
It's straightforward to install (copy and paste a few files into a folder) and then instead of pointing it at the gimp executable, you point it at the AP executable.
There is an extension to Darktable that gives another option in the export module to open the selected image in The Gimp. It is possible to more or less integrate Affinity Photo with Darktable. I still have to export to JPG from Darktable and then edit with Photo. I always used Canon and Panasonic cameras.īut I have never been able to "integrate" Photo with Darktable. But as I mentionned above, you have to spend quite some time with it.Ĭhoosing a RAW editor is often a "personnal" thing, it depends of your workflow, how many images you have to work on, and also the camera you use. And when you come back with 400 RAW files. and that fills up a hard drive rather quickly. for non destructive work you have to save the files in Aff Photo format. This being said, in the last weeks I also tested RAW development with Affinity Photo. Recently I installed Darktable 3.0 as my RAW program of choice, this is the one I got the best results over all the other RAW software. I make a few thousands RAW images a year. During that time I kept testing Rawtherapee and Darktable.
I've been a user of Lightroom and PS for years, switched to On1 Photo Raw two years ago, Affinity Photo was not up to the task during those years.
