Capture One

I love using capture one pro for desktop but seems every year it stops working as it should. Had the same issues three years running now. Getting Support is so difficult and near impossible. If you haven’t already paid for captureone then I recommend you use a different software. Nothing worse than knowing there is a great software when it works but when it stops working then you’re left all alone with your frustration and disappointment.

This is without doubt the best photo editor for Fuji files, they are cleaner and sharper than on any other Editor. The editing tools are excellent, especially with the introduction of Levels and Curves and the ability to import Styles which you may have bought in the Desktop version. You can also save your own edits as Styles which is very useful. However, the one glaring omission is masking. Most other Editing Apps for iPad allow selections to be made for targeted edits but for some reason this is lacking in Capture One. I had hoped this latest release would have included masking along with Levels and Curves, but no. This would be the ‘go to’ App for all Fuji owners if they would introduce masking. Hopefully next time!

Subscribed to Capture one just to be disappointed that it does not support Lumix cameras…

I already pay the full amount for this software I’m not paying again just to use a Phone app

Don’t let negative reviews should be put you off , as this app is not as bad as some may think try for you self. . After much contemplation, I decided to change my workflow to Capture One, and I am glad I did. It surpasses anything I have used before. The app allows for effortless addition of personal style , everything functions smoothly, and it significantly streamlines workflows on photoshoots. No need to carry around a laptop, as Capture One Live offers a great setup that is exactly what it was designed for. And added your style to mobile app So easy. . I am excited to see what new features will be added in the future.

OK .. used 40+ apps and editing programs these last 15 years.. I edit daily on LR Mobile and use Affinity all on my iPAD mini 6. AP Raw is OK as in effect it is free give the price of AP. On a budget and edit rarely it is super. For more volume and serious editing LRM and C1M are almost priced identically. On the face of it LRM has way more bells and whistles than C1M. For my workflow (Olympus M43, travel, architecture and street low light plus Mini 2 drone work) LRM is awesome. I spent the last 2 days testing and found; The ONLY advantage of LRM over C1M is the mask features… they make a huge impact and lack of these in C1M is criminal, especially wasting effort in an iPhone port of C1M instead…! However, in ALL my images - many pre-dawn, night drone and low light street C1M has (even with less sliders than LRM) much cleaner images with retained detail and micro contrast at another level. I was shocked. I have still cancelled my sub to C1M - like so many others - and am so disappointed that Paul Reiffer, other C1 folks and the C1 marketing machine has almost ZERO tutorials or comparisons. This could be a LR killer, but where is the S&M team… Your insular view doesn’t fit with customer and end user expectations or needs. I know I worked in IT and S&M for decades… Here is hoping for some improvement in function, not just feature….All the best

They should make this part of the Pro subcription - instead of charging for it as an add on. The interface doesn’t reflect the desktop version for seamless workflow. Will be unsubcribing from it.

I was really looking forward to using this app as I am a long term customer and use the full version on a daily basis, my first impressions were good, it tethers by cable really well and importing from a card reader is very fast on my new IPad Pro, but then I realised that virtually everything I thought would be included is actually missing and the cloud service is so slow it is a waste of time, then I found it was also really buggy, I had to keep closing the app and restarting it to make it work, all in all this has not been a good experience for me and visiting the forum and support site actually made it worse, I recommend anyone should go there and read all the unanswered posts. This is basically a Beta version with a fee and it isn’t worth paying for in it’s current form.

This apps only good purpose right now is tethering to the iPad. As far as an image editor goes it’s barely got any tools making it pretty much useless for editing purposes. Certainly not worth the 4.49 subscriptions unless you tether regularly to an iPad. The UI is awful with floating squares etc. compare this to Lightroom or to Resolve the later having ported their desktop experience to the iPad and you really do see that the Capture One UI looks like it’s been thrown together by school children. I cancelled my subscription I will pay for it as an when I need to tether to the iPad for a particular project. Hopefully this years update will bring layers, curves and colour wheels.

Love the aesthetic of the styles etc, some things which it needs 1: Be able to adjust the style opacity as an overall slider. 2: when importing, being able to search through photo folders as they normally appear on iPhone. Do those two and the experience becomes perfect
