Have been looking at it but it's not the 'one stop shop' which Lightroom is becoming.

Initially I only used the DAM aspects of Lr, but as it has matured I am finding I need to visit Photoshop less and less. Providing levels as it now does for the vast majority of images I can do everything I need in Lr. I much prefer the subscription model.

I can see it might have some nice features but it doesn't appear to address the DAM aspect of digital photography which to me is the first box which needs ticking. I don't want a plethora of image processing software to which I turn to one or another programs for specific tasks. It appears to cater for editing and presumably creating 360ยบ panoramas, that would be useful I have seriously intended to get PTgui, in the near future because I want to try creating 360 panoramas, they seem fun and a 'different' way of making photographs by adding that third dimension, movement.

I may download Affinity but a month trial isn't enough for me, I am so busy that a month can go by and I don't have time to take, let alone process photographs. No way am I going to fork out 50 quid just to try it out. That's where the subscription model comes in. I wish all software was available on subscription. :hardhat:

JK, since you say you are testing it, could you post your comments and finding here please? That would be very helpful! :thumbs:
