Affinity's Free App Gets Major Raw Editing Overhaul

Affinity's free app has a substantial Raw editing update out now. Nine new adjustments cover colour, sharpening, and detail at the Raw development stage, and a presets system lets you save and apply those edits across multiple files, including panoramas and focus stacks. Also new: spline-based hue and saturation curves, mixed-lighting white balance correction, a motion blur reduction tool, and an astrophotography Studio layout with dedicated star separation and histogram stretching tools. The app remains free, though some features require a subscription.
