I'll sleep on it, but for the small price I think I may add it to my arsenal. I could create profiles of my own with Hugin. I see some in there, but not all those I own and would expect. About the only negative for me is the apparently-spotty list of lens profiles for Pentax lenses. The noise reduction and sharpening are better than I expected, and - unlike some much more expensive options - it handles the raw files from my Hasselblad HV beautifully. I'm a fairly committed RawTherapee (and, to a lesser extent, Darktable) user, as I like having Windows / Linux cross-platform tools - but I just downloaded the trial of Affinity Photo and it's pretty sweet. I respectfully hope your plans change to include versions for the Linux OS.Man, I'm tempted at that price. I do not regret purchasing both iterations of the Affinity suite though I am now much less likely to use them on a regular basis. I'm not making any demands, but just stating my heartfelt desire to run native versions of my favorite software in my favorite OS. I have turned a lot of people on to the Affinity suite and will continue to do so, especially if a Linux version becomes available. That said, I will continue to support companies that provide quality software products and Affinity / Serif is definitely in that category. The move away from large corporate-based compute is growing in momentum as more people find the allure of Linux and its open-source, ad-free nature. Plus, Microsoft has become increasingly invasive. I refuse to rebuild or replace a perfectly capable PC to accommodate Microsoft's decision to require certain hardware.
I no longer consider Windows a viable platform and have switched to Linux Mint as my daily OS. I would like to register my wish for a Linux version of Affinity Photo (and eventually the full suite).
