![]() However not being prepared to pay the extortionate subscription costs that I would need in order to upgrade my old copy of PS, I have during the past few weeks been exploring other options, Darktable, Gimp and Affininity Photo, and at present I do favour Affinity Photo, but was concerned that my negative conversion workflow would not be possible within Affinity, so reading your Pdf workflow I feel far more confident that I will be able to make the transition away from Adobe. ![]() And I have always found that my perfected method provided me with excellent conversions, some of which I enlarged, mounted and exhibited. I am presently using a trial version of Affinity Photo, and my previous conversion work was undertaken with my old copy of Adobe Photoshop CS5. Thank you for sharing your Pdf workflow for negative conversion. Processing Color Negatives in Affinity Photo.pdf There are other ways, perhaps better ways, to process color negatives and convert them to positives, but this works reliably for me and yields an image that is easy to edit. This method works well for me and I hope others find it useful. No special negative film profiles are required. The approach described in this tutorial works with any brand color negative film, preserves color relationships, prevents unwanted or unintended channel clipping, radioactive colors, blown detail, etc. Some of them whacked the colors badly or were very difficult to edit. I wasn't happy with most of the approaches I found on the internet and tried. I shot RAW, but full sized TIFFs work equally well. Instead of scanning, I used my DSLR, a 100mm macro lens and an LED backlight to photograph color negatives, which I brought into Affinity Photo in their original negative form. I do not own a dedicated slide scanner, negative conversion software or plug-ins. Attached is a Tutorial on how I process and edit color negatives using Affinity Photo.
