Colour Profile for JPG in C1

[Mauribix]

Hi Folks, do you know how to change the colour profile to a JPG or TIFF file in PhaseOne Capture One?

No problem using the DNG, but when i try to assign a new colour profile to a JPG or TIFF file, the profile selectore becomes gray, and it appears locked.

Is there a way?

I bought the JFI profiles some time ago, but I can't use them on some older JPG files that are not coupled with DNG.

At the time I didn't use to shoot DNG that much.

 

Thanks a lot

No way to change the profile on a non-RAW file in C1, I'm afraid. You can do it in Photoshop, but you can only look at TIFFs and JPEGs in C1.

Thanks Jamie. I was afraid it was like this. Do you know if it possible to do it with the Pro version of C1?

No, you can't adjust non-RAW files in any version of C1 that I'm aware of....it's just a raw converter that happens to let you view TIFFs and JPEGs too.

 

So if you need to apply a profile, or convert to a different profile space, or work on the contrast or colour of a JPEG, you need Photoshop or some other tool that works with JPEGs.

 

You can use the JFI profiles in Photoshop (assign profile or convert to profile works; experiment with both). You won't have the same level of exposure control you have in C1, though.
