Affinity is incorrectly handling the output from the RAW Power extension. It should be using the image made by RAW Power (which is a JPEG). I don’t know why Affinity can’t just follow the guidelines for extensions. It’s not hard!

If you are using the RAW Power Photos Extension (or any extension, for that matter), the extension must send a JPEG (not a HEIF or TIFF) back to Photos. So, if you then export a TIFF from Photos, you will be getting a TIFF made from a JPEG (this is mentioned in the article cited above). Your best bet is to use the Export button in the RAW Power extension, which will make a TIFF that you can store on your local hard disk.
