How to use the Capture One Color Editor to fine-tune your image’s colours

September 4, 2013 by Rod Lawton

Phase One Capture One Color Editor

The Capture One Color Editor is designed for subtle manipulation, not wholesale colour substitutions. It has much in common with the Replace Color tool in Photoshop and Elements, but restricts itself to modest hue shifts rather than complete colour changes. It’s really useful where the image as a whole is more or less right, but […]

How to remove sensor spots automatically in Capture One

August 28, 2013 by Rod Lawton

Capture One spot removal

If you use a digital SLR, it’s hard to avoid dust spots on the sensor. But if you’re using Capture One, you can fix the dust on one image and then apply the same correction to a whole batch. You can do this because sensor spots don’t move. Once you’ve got a spot, it’ll be […]

How to use gradient masks in Capture One to improve outdoor shots

August 21, 2013 by Rod Lawton

Capture One gradient mask

Capture One provides a system of internal adjustment layers so that you can make localised adjustments to your pictures. These aren’t directly compatible with the adjustment layers in Photoshop and Elements – they just share the same name – but they are saved with your images in the Capture One library, so you can go […]

How to copy adjustments across images in Capture One

August 14, 2013 by Rod Lawton

Capture One copy adjustments

Capture One, Aperture and Lightroom combine image cataloguing, browsing and non-destructive editing in a way that makes it possible to enhance whole batches of images both quickly and consistently. In particular, they let you choose the perfect set of adjustments for a single representative image in the batch, then copy them across wholesale to all […]

How to compare different styles with Capture One Variants

August 7, 2013 by Rod Lawton

Captured One variants

Like Aperture and Lightroom, Capture One Pro is one of the new wave of all-in-one image cataloguing, editing and RAW conversion programs that use completely non-destructive editing tools to enhance your images. This means they all have a very special ability – they can create any number of ‘virtual’ versions of the same photo without […]

Fixing perspective is easy with Capture One Pro’s Keystone Vertical tool

July 31, 2013 by Rod Lawton

Capture One Keystone Vertical tool

You can fix converging verticals and other perspective problems in many programs, including Lightroom and DxO Optics Pro, but Capture One Pro 7 has what I think is the most easiest and most accurate tool of all. The problem with fixing keystoning is that you need to be extremely accurate in aligning the tool’s marker […]

Capture One Pro 7’s offline mode springs a surprise

July 16, 2013 by Rod Lawton

Capture One offline editing

Capture One Pro 7 is a big upgrade on the previous version, and one of the biggest additions is the built-in library function. It now works just like Adobe Lightroom, storing all your images in a searchable database, complete with Lightroom-style Collections and Smart Collections. You can also use it in offline mode. This means […]

How to get the most from the Capture One High Dynamic Range controls

July 10, 2013 by Rod Lawton

Capture One Dynamic Range

Capture One Pro 7 is not just an excellent RAW converter. Like Adobe Lightroom it has some quite sophisticated adjustment controls. In particular, the Capture One High Dynamic Range sliders are very good at extracting the maximum latent highlight and shadow detail in RAW files. This is not HDR in the usual sense, where you […]
