With this program I felt more comfortable working and I got used to it and its benefits, it has a very good graphics engine and its tools are advanced but easy to use.

It is not cheap and buying the latest version every year can be expensive and the latest updates have been reducing the brightness of the program.

#### Reasons for switching to Capture One

the issue was whether to make a single purchase or pay a subscription and also capture one is more fluid in the equipment I have.

Looking for a faster, better platform that works for me

### Could be great, if you started there

- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Photography
- Company size: Self-Employed
- Product usage: Used weekly for free trial
- Reviewed: September 2022
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

I wanted to stay with it, but I just couldn’t. As a small creator, I don’t have the funds to have both Adobe (for photoshop) & Capture One. There is a lot of promise here though.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

The flow of the program, Layers, tethering & the catalogue

#### Cons

No presets. Coming from Adobe, I love my presets.

#### Reasons for choosing Capture One

I wanted to try the product. Ultimately, I stuck with LR

#### Reasons for switching to Capture One

I wanted to try something different

### Fast, consistent RAW editor with excellent output

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Klemen V.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Marketing and Advertising
- Company size: 2-10 employees
- Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: July 2021
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

At first C1 was my goto RAW editor for Fuji XT4. Later we tried to launch editing outsourcing services. We have choosen C1 because of consistency between different cameras.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

My camera is Fuji, and C1 is specially good for Fuji camera's. I also like layers. Think of best mix of PhotoShop and LightRoom.

#### Cons

Anamorphic pictures can only squeze up to 25%. Why limit that feature in the first place? WebP output would be nice. Specially with Google taking speed as ranking factor.

#### Reasons for switching to Capture One

Luminar did not have native support for XT4 therefore editing was slow and results were not that good. Luminar was good fo individual editing, but working process for editing large amount of photos was just not great.

### Great photo editing software!

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Tania J.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Marketing and Advertising
- Company size: 501-1000 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months
- Reviewed: April 2020
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Love this software! As a hobby photographer I am now able to organize and consolidate all my photos in one place. I love that I am also able to easily use it with both my Nikon and Canon cameras.

#### Cons

The annual plan is a bit expensive and limits the number of users on each plan so if you’re running a business this might be something to evaluate to see if it’s cost worthy.

### Capture one : Making the photo editing great !

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Yasiru G.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Computer Software
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months
- Reviewed: May 2020
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

Overall experience is very good. Capture one has given me a centralized solution for managing and editing my photos very easily with great features.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

One of the best features I liked about Capture one is their sophisticated user interface. Even though it is sophisticated user interface is very user friendly too. And another one is Tethered capture where it gives users the ability to shoot photos directly to their computers.

#### Cons

I wish there is a free tier where there are less features so the beginners who starting their career will be able to use this without worrying about the finance.

- Product usage: Used other for free trial
- Reviewed: December 2020

Its a great opportunity for the professional image processing, customization and editing personnel.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

It covers a wide range of photo editing features which is required by any photo expert but its color corrections are the best to mention here. HDR management works such that even after the photo has been captured HDR still works. Secondly for a new photo editor its a good place to learn the basics and specific photo customizations.

#### Cons

My personal experience with this photo editing soliton is very good. What I would suggest to make a little interactive iconic interface.
