#FASTRAWVIEWER DNG PREVIEWS SKIN#
No doubt it’s a skin retoucher or product photographer's dream, but I just wanted to run back to the safety and comfort of Lightroom. By contrast, Capture One feels like it’s on another level, with color wheels and words like “Uniformity” that quickly made me feel out of my depth. While I’ve been using Lightroom extensively for many years, it’s not so often that I dive into the HSL/Color panel, but when I do, I feel like I have a reasonable understanding of how things work. The second major aspect that makes itself felt is how much more control there appears to be in Capture One, to the extent that it feels a little daunting. While the process feels less intuitive (at first at least), spot healing is also noticeably more responsive. Zooming in to an image is also refreshingly quick and far more logical, and with the completely different layout, there’s no need to transition between Library and Develop modules - something that can sometimes be quite laggy in Lightroom. In Lightroom, if I’m browsing through a freshly imported batch of photos, hitting R to switch to the crop tool can take a moment. One of the first big changes compared to Lightroom is the speed. Ratings and collections are maintained, but any editing beyond crop, rotation, orientation, white balance, exposure, saturation, and contrast will be lost.

[Edit: Unlike Lightroom, Capture One Pro can be bought outright: $299 for all cameras, and $129 for the Sony/Fuji version.)Ĭapture One can import a Lightroom catalog, and one quick way to get started is to grab a load of images in Lightroom, add them to a Collection, export that Collection as a Lightroom catalog, and then import that catalog into Capture One. Given that the potential to remove dust specks is absent, it feels a little pointless.) A few other features are omitted, such as annotating files, keystone correction, and spot removal.

(It’s worth noting that Capture One Express is available for free to Fujifilm and Sony users, but this Express version does not support tethered shooting and nor does it have any layer or masking tools. If you live in Europe, expect to pay up to 33% more than US customers.
My post production is often light as budgets are small. I’m often delivering large batches of images from events without intensely detailed editing.

I’m a part-time professional working on small jobs and lots of personal projects. I will also add that I’m not delivering beauty, fashion, or product photography to high-end commercial clients. With all of that in mind, if there’s an aspect of Capture One that I don’t like, it’s probably because it doesn’t suit me, rather than it being something fundamentally wrong with the software. That’s a big reason to stick with what I’m used to. The thought of ditching almost seven years’ worth of Lightroom images is not a pleasant one, and I can’t figure out how I could run these systems alongside each other for a year or two in order to transition without it being too expensive for me. Like many of us, I’m set in my ways and while I like playing with new things, I’m also resistant to change.
I should preface this article by explaining that this is entirely a personal experience and that your mileage will vary. In keeping with photographic traditions, the naming convention is illogical, having moved from Capture One 12 straight to Capture One 20, apparently to avoid unlucky 13 and reflect the fact that it’s 2020. The newly updated Capture One caught my attention and opened my eyes.Ĭapture One 20 launched earlier this month and it claims to be the best version ever for dragging Lightroom users into its fold. There are plenty of things about Lightroom that bug me and despite being a hardened user of more than 6 years, I thought it was about time give something else a go.
