Aperture doesn’t have a history tool either but it does have a very handy compare to original version with a single shortcut (‘m’). This is a major miss and a big argument for Lightroom. Hooray! Officially, this new feature is just for Photoshop, but many other apps also work including my beloved Color Efex Pro! No History Tool Since version 8.1 Capture One supports round-tripping with automatic file re-import from third-party applications. This was for me the biggest stumbling block about moving to Capture One.īut, you will notice the last two paragraphs have been written in the past tense. OK I could export a file to it and use my favourite filters, and maybe the Capture One Clarity slider reduces the need a bit, but this situation was not fantastic, especially as I had to manually import the TIFF file back to Capture One.

In particular, I really missed Color Efex Pro 4 from Nik. For the most part it succeeds with this all-in-one approach but there are functions where it is not best of breed (cloning, healing and noise reduction spring to mind).Īs an Aperture user you were almost obliged to use third-party apps to achieve specific results and this led to familiarity and love in some cases. The Phase One philosophy has historically been to do everything in the one program and thus it had no support for third-party plug-ins.
So what’s missing? Capture One is/was a Standalone Program
Phase One has stated that will now release some major functional upgrades in dot releases rather than waiting for a major new release. As an aside, this also reflects a change in release philosophy. The Yosemite 10.10.3 beta has dashed many of these hopes so my analysis made at the time has been adapted here to focus on why you might not choose Capture One and maybe use something else.Ī more recent consideration in this analysis is that Phase One has introduced a major new feature with its 8.1 release late last year that radically changes its prior ‘standalone’ program stance and in my view addresses one of its biggest disadvantages. At the time there were also quite a few reasons I identified for staying and waiting it out for Photos.app.
My initial post on Capture One looked at all the positive reasons I identified for moving to Capture One alongside some of my experiences in using the program from an ex-Aperture user’s perspective.
