Capture One Pro 6


Recommended Posts

For some images I prefer Capture One 6 pro and for some LR3.

Therefore the only sensible answer I can make is to suggest that you download Capture One trial and use it for a while. I am still happy that I have both.

I use Aperture 3. Can you elaborate on what images you would chose to edit in Capture One? I did download it and noticed that there obviously a learning curve (like with any PP software) and I dont want to waste the time learning it if there is nothing that it has over Aperture 3.

I started using Capture One when it became available with the M8 and soon after updated to Pro. It is an excellent, feature rich tool. With a learning curve that is well worth the trouble.

 

I also keep current my Photoshop but find that for most of my post processing needs going through C1 is enough.

 

The results of C1 with Leica produced DNG files are hard to beat.

Any advantages in termsmof features that it has over Aperture 3? Also, if the DNG files get better colors when converting with Capture, what would be the correct workflow to get those files back into Aperture for editing?

I am not that familiar with Aperture but find that there is ever less need to process my files in Photoshop after C1.

 

But if you wish, you can "process" finished files to tiff or jpg format into a work folder, from where you can take them into Aperture.

Modern RAW convertors are all very good, which one you prefer comes down to a matter of personal taste. CaptureOne produces a very good starting file in terms of colour and rendition of detail. It uses actual ICC profiles for each camera. It lacks the asset management features of LR. It is an easy programme to learn – a couple of hours should make you comfortable with the basic workflow and then you can decide for yourself.
