For the first time, Hasselblad medium-format RAW files are natively supported in Capture One. Import, organize, and develop your .3FR files directly in the software. 

Support starts with the Hasselblad X2D II 100C, X2D 100C, and CFV 100C digital back.  

Tethered capture is coming later this year. Read more here and update Capture One to start working with your files today.

-> HASSELBLAD SUPPORT IS NOW LIVE

I love to play with the tech but I prefer one time purchases.

I'm wondering if I could get a few of paid jobs a year to make the subscription make sense, but I'm a hobbyist.

I have been using C1 22 for many years now. I import my photos from my MacMini M2 to an external Drive. Today, after a few months not using the software, it refuses to import a limited amount of photos (15) from my SD Card. Same procedure as before, the import page opens, I select photos, but clicking on "Import 15 images" doesn't make the software react.

Same behaviour on my brand now MacBookAir M4. I am registered on both installation of the software.

Have you encountered the same issue? What could be the cause (and thus the remedy)?

I'm getting some paid editing software as a hobbyist. I'm using sony alpha a6000, and usually shoots b&w photography in raw. I have some experience with RawTherapee, however I wouldn't say I'm much experienced with it, rather just, know the basis.

Probably would like to try Lightroom or Capture one pro. Which one do you think is better?

Been trying to get Capture One from the main website however all payment methods fail, over 2 days. Tried with two different browsers. Tried my laptop and via smartphone so different IP access.

• 2 different credit cards, one Visa and another MC, none blocked.
• Applepay
• Googlepay
• Paypall

And no, none of my cards are blocked, I even purchased other items online between attempts with no issues.

Been thinking of buying the annual from B&H and be done with it because I haven't heard a response to my email inquiry!!!

Any suggestions?

I recently did a tethered photoshoot for the first time with my Nikon Z9 connected by USB-C to Capture One Mobile on my iPad Pro.

Setup:

• Nikon Z9
• Capture One Mobile on iPad
• USB connection priority on the Z9: Shooting
• Tether connection shown in Capture One: PTP
• Card 1: NEF
• Card 2: JPEG
• Image quality: RAW + JPEG

During the shoot, Capture One Mobile received the images normally. I ended up with several hundred RAW + JPG files on the iPad.

Afterwards, I checked both camera cards on my computer. Both cards show the same gap:

• RAW card: D79_3892.NEF at 13:02, then next file D79_3893.NEF at 13:37
• JPEG card: D79_3892.JPG at 13:02, then next file D79_3893.JPG at 13:37

So for about 35 minutes, images continued arriving in Capture One Mobile on the iPad, but neither camera card recorded the captures. After 13:37, writing to both cards resumed normally.

Capture One Mobile renamed the tethered files, but I matched them to the Z9 card files by timestamp and file size, so this is a real gap in local card recording and not just a filename issue.

Has anyone experienced this with a Nikon Z9, or another camera, tethered to Capture One Mobile over PTP?

I’m especially wondering:

1. Can local card recording temporarily stop during a tethered session while Capture One Mobile keeps receiving files?
2. Could this happen after a reconnect, cable issue, or other change?
3. Is there a Nikon or Capture One Mobile setting that could cause this?
4. Is there a reliable way to verify during a shoot that every tethered image is being saved to the camera cards?

Any experience or troubleshooting ideas would be appreciated.

This was a location shoot with three hired models, so discovering afterwards that both camera cards had a 35-minute recording gap was quite stressful. Thankfully, the missing images were still available on the iPad, but I would really like to understand what happened so I can prevent it on future shoots, ... and don't die young of a heart attack. ;)

Helping to ready for a photoshoot and running into a major issue...

Setup is a Fujifilm GFX 50S II with studio flash. When shooting tethered, the flash exposure fluctuates from shot to shot, even though all camera settings, flash power, and lighting remain unchanged. The exposure is inconsistent, making every image look slightly different.

To rule out the camera, I tested an other camera, and the exact same problem occurs with all of them. I also tested different flashes, but the issue persists.

Shooting on a solid-colored background and need perfectly consistent exposures because the shoo consists of combining individual portraits with a group shot. Even small exposure variations are creating extra work in post-production.

Has anyone experienced this issue or found a solution?

Is there a special setting that I am missing?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just got photoshop. I’ve been using only capture 1 since I started photography . I feel like besides object removal I can do everything in capture 1. I havn’t got into switching out faces which could be useful especially for group shots and big image manipulation like that which I can see would be helpful. From what I’ve read there are good tools for retouching also. I feel like I’m missing something What do you use photoshop for?

Hi community,

Our new 16.8.2 version is now available for download. Check our release notes to learn about the updates.

Howdy. I just got a batch of ARWs in from a Sony ILCE-7M5.

I... cannot... get them... to load.

Looks like Capture One has supported them since 16.7.3. I seem to recall working w Sony files in Capture One fine long ago.

They load in Adobe Camera Raw fine, but I'd rather not go back to a Stone Age workflow when I'm paying for Capture One.

No permission problems that I can see. Capture One has full disk access. Files aren't locked.

Thanks in advance for thoughts.

Lately I've been upgrading all my generic .costyle 'styles' I've made over the years to include tools I've learned since creation, like primarily luma curves. Upon opening up these .costyle files in an editor, some values and variables are easily recognizable, others not so much.

I started deconstructing some of them. Make a tiny change somewhere, export the file, view it, and see what values changed. I did this for a week. Every change and value I could think of, and how it changes the code.

I documented it. Default values, min max numeric values, what works what doesn't. I got most settings down, but I want to see what else I'm missing.

Are there any guides specifically for these numeric tables and such I can find ?

Thanks!

We are a small studio shooting ecomm. We fit extremely well into the standard C1 Pro subscription. For years we've been grandfathered into a multi-seat C1 plan, at an extremely low price; ~$40/month for five seats. We needed another seat, which they weren't able to add, so we just use an individual Pro subscription (paid in full, so it's $18/month, $216/year).
Well, the multi-seat plan is now going away, so in talks with our contact person, she is saying we need to use Studio, at a price of $500/seat/year, and that we run the risk of breaking the End User Agreement if we don't do this. This seems insane to me; is it a threat?! What am I missing that justifies $2500/year (just for five seats) with Studio vs the $1080/year (five seats) Pro version?! We are so basic in our studio, but have dedicated stations. We need live view, we apply styles, we use tokens for Next Naming.

Looking into using an iPhone as the main capture device for an e-commerce studio setup, tethered to a Mac via Capture One. The goal is to be able to trigger the shutter and ideally switch between focal lengths from the Mac without touching the phone at all.

Has anyone actually run this in practice? Specifically curious whether lens switching is controllable from the Mac side or whether that still needs to happen on the phone itself.

Also open to hear how people are handling the automated side ( file naming, square crop exports, Photoroom integration) if anyone has that pipeline running smoothly.

Thanks

Hi, there.

Is it possible to create a style or preset for adjusting white balance Kelvin or tint in steps similar to when using speed edit? Adjustments such as exposure, contrast, or shadow recovery are offset *relative* to the image in the sense that increasing exposure one step will have the same relative effect on all images. I.e., the images will have their exposure adjusted one stop on all images. Adjusting Kelvin or tint works by setting an absolute value -- not offsetting by a certain amount.

I know I can select a bunch of images and then modify white balance in steps using speed edit, but I would like to have this as a style, preset, or some other one-click mechanism. I would not like to resort to external keystroke utilities such as AutoHotkey or AutoIt.

Is this possible to achieve natively in C1? Possibly by deconstructing a .costyle file?

(Latest Capture One version, Windows 11.)

(Edit: Corrected "quick edit" to "speed edit".)

Not sure what is going on, suddenly this thing keeps happening. While I am editing photos, suddenly the previews go like this or the photos are scrambled all over.

Are my photos corrupted? any of you guys experienced this issue?
