Making a switch from photoshop is possible.
I never thought I’d actually say that. Obviously there are things missing that I wish would be added but to be honest, Adobe has had 20+ years to improve their product and I can’t say that I think they’ve used that time wisely. Affinity photo surpassed my expectations and is worth every penny. The things I can’t do in Affinity, I know only because I know that they are possible in Photoshop. Had I never worked with Photoshop I would have never missed those features. So I’d say, if you are looking to work professionally with photo editing and haven’t gotten used to Photoshop, this is a great tool and will do more than enough. If you are looking for a photoshop replacement, It’s definitely a question of taste and preference. I “decided to” prefer Affinity because the price tag on Adobes software doesn’t even come close to making up for the gained functionality. I have worked with photoshop professionally since 1998 so the switch has been difficult and straining but I’m now satisfied with it. Great job! And I’m looking forward to coming updates.
