Another good to the point video I learnt this one in the early days of affinity photo . Live filter >unsharp mask >radius 100 >factor at default (365) threshold 0 (default) >opacity 50%. That is in my "start" macros so it is always there. I very seldom charge it , however it's easy to turn off/on or add/reduce opacity Personally ; I feel too many are too obsessed with "sharpness" when there are more important parts to good photography . But sharpness and the lack of grain (noise) has always been ''a thing'' in photography --- yep with me too 😇🤗
Thanks for the sliders always good to know suggested settings. I actually do the sharpening in Develop Persona but I always thought the effect was lacking. Will try yours! 🙂 Did you learn this settings from anywhere?
The halos are coming from too high a radius, as per others much better to use the high pass option in Affinity as you can also tick the monochrome option to stop colour effecting
Excellent video - I did an experiment comparing the two methods, yes, freq separation is faster, but the high pass of course is non-destructive, I can come up with similar results - but good concepts for tool box :)

One of the simple and precise tutorial on frequency separation. 👍👍👍.
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!
Great tip! Of course, I've used frequency separation for smoothing in portrait photos, but I never used it for sharpening like this.
Glad to hear it was helpful. There is a stand alone tool called high pass filter which does the same thing with a few more steps

Hi there thanks for the tip. Will try that monochrome option. Yes after checking high pass option is better.
Another great tutorial. I usually use high pass filter or Sharpener Pro (Nik Collection)
Thanks for sharing! I do have nik collection. But never tried sharpener pro.
I usually go with Nik.
Muy util, muchas gracias!
Your welcome

Yes thanks for sharing. The processing does seem to be the same for high pass and frequency separation. What blend mode do you use for your high pass?
@@takebetterphotos8132 linear light to keep same
Thank you. Can the low pass filter be used for denoising, masking as needed, rather than discarding it?
Yes you can. It's used for denoising or removing blemishes in portraits. It was not needed for my edit so I discarded it to avoid confusion.
Works great! Thanks!
Great to hear!
