I went to Affinity years ago when Adobe went to subscription. I use it commercially and privately as a graphic designer and photographer, I have not found it lacking. Slight learning curve with the different interface and tool names, but it's an excellent alternative to Adobe, and so much cheaper. $1500.00 for CS6 , and about %50.00 for AP, quite the difference.

Great videdo, Rich! Afinity is on sale right now too.

Great information Rich. Can you outline or highlight property lines with Affinity photo 2?

I need to fly over a forest in a steep valley with no cell reception, i have multiple GPS waypoints to enter but cant, i only want to manually fly to said points because of altitude changes.

Thanks Rich for the Ai generated photos. Look forward to what you will do with them in Affinity Photo.

Thanks Rich! Short you tube classes please. Maybe how to use the 360 you were talking about. I’m new to photo editing and never used photoshop and just subscribed to affinity.

These are all designed for single photo editing. We need a Lightroom competitor.

So, having personally made a comparison of Affinity Photo 2 and the last non-subscription Photoshop (version CS6), I'd like to know a couple of things. Firstly and importantly, why don't Affinity own their own lens correction profile list? The list of xml profiles used in Affinity 2 is way out of date, and seems to be rarely if ever updated by whoever does own the list. The Adobe list is invariably up-to-date, and all their profiles work well in Camera Raw and the 12-year old CS6. But in spite of assurances to the contrary in the Affinity Photo forum, Adobe profiles don't successfully transfer to Affinity. They behave very weirdly and even make distortions and aberrations worse. My own examples are the Sigma 35mm F1.4 (Art. 21) for Sony and Lumix, and Sony 50mm F1.4 GM, neither of which have profiles for Affinity. I think this is a serious deficiency in an image editing application trying to attract professional photographers who work with RAW image files. My second issue is simply the speed of Affinity Photo 2. Why does it perform generally slower than the 12-year old Photoshop CS6? It's not an issue that would prevent me for using it if I didn't have alternatives, but I would have expected Affinity Photo 2 to have been at least equal to, if not faster than, PS CS6. To me the lens correction issue (and the fact that Affinity doesn't own its own lens correction profile list) is a bit of a dealbreaker. I bought my copy of Affinty Photo 2 based of good reviews - no reviews mentioned anything about lens correction profiles. But it turns out that Affinity Photo 2 doesn't give me very much that I can't do, and do quicker, in PS CS6. And the one thing that I really need it to do at the tap of a stylus, or mouse click, it can't be relied on to do - especially for quite a lot of lenses made in the last couple of years.

I'm on board. Glad to leave Adobe.

9:38 you say that you weren't shooting specifically to make a model, what's the difference?

Great video, Rich. I want to learn a lot more, so hoping you do a class. I learn something new every time. The live projection is a good one.

Hey Rich, Thank you for sharing the information. Is Affinity capable of outlining estimated property lines and highlighting them?

Boring too

Thanks, Rich 👍

Affinity Rules !!!!!!!!!!

Thanks again Rich for this video!

Hello How can i take and complete 360 degree image for apload to plugin?

In your Airstream does your fridge run on electricity or gaz? And do you have hot water on demand?

Even before the recent Adobe 'skulduggery' I was always somewhat confused by Lightroom workflow, moved to Affinity Photo2 and never looked back. Never knew it could do this though, thx for putting this up. Any drone workflow vids always appreciated here

Wow, I didn't know it could do the 3d thing. so good.

I've had Affinity since they first released and along with you, I like the price (on sale, Affinity 2 is like $50 for PC & Mac licenses) and the 360 tooling. I also find it easier to work with than Adobe's products, not necessarily better functionality, but easier to get things done. With Adobe it really helps if you're a long time regular user and know it in depth. With Affinity, it's easier to figure out how to do things and it seems easier to leave it for awhile and come back and pick it right back up again. Good to see you back 🙂

So glad to hear you're on the mend. Always enjoy your videos. I purchased an M50 a while back on your recommendation and it's been a good investment for me. I've had a part 107 for three years and flown mostly the DJI mini series. I was wondering, in terms of commercial work, as a next step up in drones, would an Air2S be okay or do you think the added expense to move up to a Mavic would be worthwhile? Thanks, so glad you're back at it. Cheers!

Yup! I've gone full OpenSource since Adobe's BS.

Hi Rich, I have had Affinity Photo for several years but rarely use it. I just stopped my Adobe subscription, because I use Luminar Neo for most of my editing. It's features are great, but it lacks some of the features I like in PS. After watching this video I purchased the Affinity upgrade through the offer in my old version and got a lot of extras in the bundle for $62. I think it will be all I need, and what a great price! Great video! I hope to see more in the future. I have learned more from you over the years than from any other person or source! I sincerely appreciate all of your work and the value you offer through your classes. I wish you the best in health and prosperity.

Rich, thanks for this video. I know I would appreciate a series of classes on AZ Drone that go deeper into Affinity Photo.

Hi there, Thanks for the video! I have a question: if a customer wants to check the progress of the housing development and you can view it on your computer with the 360 picture, zoom in and out, etc., how can the customer see the same thing if they don't have the software? Is there a way to export it or something similar? Thanks!

Affinity Photo 2 is 50% off right now

Great video Rich!! Welcome back!

Rich, love that you're still adding valuable content. Love the classes you've made. Do you have anymore coming out soon?

Thanks for the excellent content as usual. Have you tried using the alignment tool in Photoshop on an ortho over the top of a DEM? I wonder if or how well it will work. I'm going to give it a try.

Pixelmator Pro is also a good layering option. But I do love Affiniity Photo 2. I left adobe months ago.

Can I upload a Flight plan from LI to my RC pro controller for my Mavic three enterprise? Or does it only work with mobile devices?

Id also love to see you create a tutorial class for this!

Great news on getting your medical careback on track! WHEW!! Love your drone photos.

Sad to hear about your medical experiences. That's awful!

Rich, The UA-cam video "DJI FlightHub 2 - In-Depth Discussion | Dronefly" says that Flight Hub 2 is compatible with the Matrice series. It does not mention the Mavic series. Perhaps that is why you can't access it. Bruce Lutz

I tend to set up a test shot with a white sheet and a grey card showing prominently. I edit that image getting the white balance etc from the grey card or the white sheet. Then transfer all the settings of the other images without the cards in the shots. I rarely see it being done, especially if several 360 shots are being taken in different locations of the same room it helps.

Wow, Rich! What a journey. Catching up on this unfortunate series of events. I sympathize with you and your view on the pathetic state of the medical industry. So disheartening. Given this was a few months ago at this point, I hope things have progressed for the better in this hernia journey. Sending you all the good juju vibes!

I want to create my own Virtual tour hosting website. I need Help

Rich, It's great to see that you are well on the mend! Bruce Lutz

Rich, what version of Metashape are you using after WebODM processing you mentioned? Can’t justify the $4K pro version. Keep up the good work!

Not like y0urs 😊

What are you recording you videos w for timelapse . ? I want to do it I can't line them up

I hear you. Updates need to be monitored very often. I started creating my own small business website based on all that I learned from your classes. While I have been going through the process of learning and doing, there have been so many updates nearly every other day to Wordpress and the various plugins that I have installed and been testing. It is a big job just to get organized and to get a business ready to be advertised via an active website. One Step At a Time and don't we all love puppies?

Well, I look at the website as I do any part of the business - it all needs to be attended to, so that's not a problem for me. but I love the idea of having a dedicated client build progress page - great idea!!!

Just curious Rich, why do you continue to assist prior clients, if they don’t listen to your original advice? I don’t to seem derogatory, but, why spend time with them. I do understand, as I had my architectural firm for 40 years, and I always try to be helpful, but there are times as to questioning myself about certain clients.

Fantastic advice! People don't realize that maintaining a business website is a continual process.

Rich, you look and sound better than the last post I saw. Are you over the hump with your health issue(s)? And are you back to your pre-health issues workload at 50% or greater? Cheers, Chuck

Just got my sites up and running properly. Thanks for the course, Rich!
