Capture One PRO

Recommended Posts

I don't use Aperture, but I think Capture One 4.5 looks sharper than Lightroom. Did you look at the link to the full size image I posted on the GetDPI DMR image thread? Take a look at the trees in the background or the power lines in the background.

 

BTW, this is the full size file of the seven vertical shots stiched into a panorama. It is about 10mb to download.

Thanks, downloading it again now (changed computer meanwhile so lost it).

 

How is the "look of it" compared to others. Just did some Lightroom and FlexColor conversions again today of portraits to compare and select the best. But FlexColor looks great but tend to close the shadows. How does the C1 handle the expression in general.

(I guess what I'm looking for is a filmlike look, and so far C1 has been very focuced on details, and I guess it's what make MF users happy: Sharpness and details. I like clarity and soul more)

Did any (DMR users in particular) test the new PRO version of Capture One, compared it to Apeture, Lightroom

 

I've used C1 for several years now, but for some unknown reason I can't get it to load on my new MacBook Pro. Even a spanking new download (of 3.7.7, the most recent version I had) just quits when I run the installer. Version 4.5 installs, but I can't get authorization to go through. Do I shell out some €300 plus 25% VAT for it (approx £290), or just go buy Aperture, or Lightroom?

i suggest the following procedure:

 

1) delete all traces of previous c1 installations

2) repair permission

3) or use a tool like "cocktail"

I'm a little tempted, but don't think I'll do it. A good thing is that the price has gone down a lot. Not along it was twice as expensive..

I personally prefer to work in ACR as I prefer the workflow, but I'm getting more and more used to C1 and I think the IQ is clearly superior to ACR so I've decided to work in C1 for now..

I agree that C1 looks sharper than Lr.

The only drawback, for me, is that the interface is a little to PC oriented and I am addicted to the logic of a Macintosh, my personal opinion, obviously.

It seems Phase One has put a lot of effort into franctioning the sharpen tool compared to Lr and CR. The result is crispier even at lower sharpen adjustment.

IMHO.

Note that there's a special for C1 users so you can upgrade to PRO for less than usual. At least I got that offer in my mailbox from a photo dealer or directly.
