I shoot a lot of the gospel tent, and there well, it often tends to have a LOT of people on stage, and last year I had good results shooting some of them in a quick pano.
So, that will be a LOT of images to import, sort, cull, develop, and all.a major test of On1 and my patience with doing something new. I'll be shooting Jazz Fest 2018 here in New Orleans the 2nd weekend, and this will be the first extreme test of doing a workflow sans Adobe, using On1 RAW and Affinity.I'm shooting the 2nd weekend, Thurs-Sunday, and I think last year I shot close to avg 1000 images a day covering my two stages. I'm still finding really cool ways to use all the masking in On1 RAW. I explored further and saw that maybe making a preset based off the Dynamic Contrast could maybe be something to look at too.etc.Īnyway.if nothing else, it is fun to try new things and learn new things. I couldn't really find the clarity.a little research and finding that with On1, the Structure slider is the close equivalent of Clarity. Not cool either.Ĭonsidering their aggressive criticism of Adobe to garner new users, they should be aware of how this kind of BS will play with already disgruntled former Adobe users.I'm trying my hand at using On1 RAW in conjunction with Affinity Photo.so far, working pretty darned well.still trying to get my keyboard short cuts memorized or altered to fit what I'm used to in PS and LR, and then occasionally, having to stop and research to see how something I did in PS is done in Affinity, usually just called something else (different name).etc.įor example, today in On1 RAW, I was trying to set up my own preset adjustment for "Iris Enhance" like in LR. The "upgrade" to the 2018 version should be free, or a modest amount, for existing users - instead it is $80.
I agree that they promised features which were not implemented in the original release, etc. They do produce a lot of content, videos specifically, but they pretty much repeat the basic idea - here is an image I shot, here is how I edit it with Photo Raw. I bought 2017 when it came out, but it just sits on my machine and I barely use it - there is no compelling reason to do so.
I would say that their marketing is aggressive, according to my inbox, and their software is average.
What seems ironic about the OnOne approach is their simultaneous attack (thinly veiled or otherwise) on Adobe to attract disgruntled Adobe users while essentially pushing out a clone of Lightroom with some "filters" and layers/masks - and pushing folks to join the *subscription* OnOne Plus program.
Disassociate yourself from them now and you may (MAY) salvage your reputation. Fool me twice, shame on me."Įdit: and Matt K (Kloskowski) shame on you for participating in this egregious travesty. Not even going to waste time with the trial.
Let me interpret that: "crowdsourced" ideas were the ON1 2017 suckers reporting bugs that needed to be fixed or features that were promised but missingĪin't gonna' happen. On1 2018 apparently features "crowdsourced" ideas. ON1 Photo 2018 ? Bull shirt - how about calling it what it really is - ON1 Photo Raw 2017 FINALLY COMPLETED and offering the completed ON1 Photo Raw to all us poor suckers who bought into your Photo RAW 2017 line of crap. Items and features have been added on a regular basis all along and upgrades were offered. In other words, it was incomplete and unfinished when released. If y'all remember the history of ON1 Photo Raw 2017, it was released to the public missing options.
