(Affinity Photo 2 doesn't seem to have any problems working with Z8 uncompressed RAW photos, by the way.) But if I can't SEE the photos that I've just imported, I AM STUCK! For more detailed editing, I use Affinity Photo 2. I use the Photos app for sorting, cataloging (by species), and simple editing of my bird/wildlife photos. Imagine my shock and disappointment when I imported my first uncompressed RAW photos into the Apple 'Photos' app on my Mac and saw just blank, grey squares where the images' thumbnails should have been!
I was very happy when my brand new Nikon Z8 arrived a couple of days ago. After doing a LOT of research, and thinking about getting a Nikon Z8, I finally decided to get one.
