Re: LUMIX G7 Panorama defaulting to B&W

Thanks again. I'm on an iMac so don't use windows systems.

I checked the Lumix this morning, and for some reason when I select Panorama mode it was defaulting to B&W, even though it was set to Standard / Colour for regular stills. I did manage to take a panorama with it in colour, so hopefully that's sorted.

At about 90$AUD, Affinity Photo is great for my needs, in fact I'm at this moment making some Cover Art for an album of music which will be on all the streaming sites, using a photo I took a few years ago on iPhone. It's good to be able to 're-expose' it in Affinity and then use the tools etc and add Text.

I did try a Demo version of Alien Skin's EXPOSURE X5, but I decided that the exposure function in Affinity is fine for me, and I didn't like the way Exposure X5's import and filing system works. Probably good for a full-time professional photographer doing commercial work with thousands of shots, but I prefer to have it a bit more 'old school' where I just make my own Folders in Finder etc.
