The secret to getting incredible edits in Capture One is understanding how to do local adjustments. Make the subject of your photograph pop, lead the viewer's eye - take control of your RAW image from your camera after making local adjustments that will make your photography stand out and be noticed. This is where the power in Capture One comes out and allows you to do things that are a little different that Adobe Lightroom or Photoshop.

This is how all video tutorials should be - perfectly concise with no waffling or other time-wasting, and full of excellent information presented in an understandable way.

Jesus Christ why did I not look up "Capture One local adjustments" sooner? These 15 minutes taught me so much, I can't thank you enough!!!

been using C1 for a couple of months now and thought i had some good strategies for chromatic aberration but this "Create masked layer from selection" technique blew my mind. thanks sooo much!

Great tutorial Ted! Here's a huge tip I learned, when creating new mask. Create a 'Fill Mask', and apply your adjustments to the 'imagined' layered area. In your example, you wanted to brighten the main subject in your street shot. While looking at your subject, apply your desired edits until you're happy. Now this will put all areas outside of the 'imagined' mask completely out of wack... but only keep your eye on your layered area and adjust until satisfied. Right click on the mask and then select 'Clear Mask'. Any non-masked areas will revert to the original edit but your masked adjustments are intact. Now, select your brush or gradient tool and start brushing (or gadientating?)... For me, this is my favorite dodging and burning tool (and so much more). Plus you have the opacity slider to adjust if you went too far. Love the channel.

Thank you, so much.A very clear, concise and easily understood approach. Inspired me to have a go. I struggled with layers in Photoshop, and every video I watched just confused me more as there were so many approaches shown by different people. This makes so much sense as a concept that one can grasp straight away.

I'm so thankful that you are highlighting C1 use in post-processing images. I've been using it for about a year now, and I find your vids informative and supportive to work-arounds that I've tried, e.g. addressing CA. This is a specific question: Do you find remarkable differences in .arw files opened in LR vs C1? I've never been able to get the P-P desired effects obtained in C1 from LR. I'm glad to have made the switch. Thanks again Ted, you are quite helpful and informative.

I’m a Canon user currently using Lightroom Classic. I’m lookin at getting this, upgrading to Lightroom CC, or doing something else. Where should I start, research-wise? What features/performance/whatever should I be looking at? Is it important to mention that I shoot RAW?

Hi! Thank you for this video, it is super useful, and informative, especially the CA part, I am very grateful for this tip, because I was struggling a lot with it, so thank you again! Hope to see more videos from you! :) I would love to see a video from you in the future, about editing a very bad portrait in terms of skin: when it is a really bad in every way - acnes and also the tone of the skin is just not right. It would be very useful for lot of people in your interpretation, I think :)

@JasonMilner 4 жыл бұрын

Very helpful, especially using Luma with gradient masks - many thanks. It does seem counter intuitive that the mask is the part that the adjustments work on though, I always though of masks as masking out the area so an effect won't apply there, but I'm sure I'll get used to that. I started on the 1 month trial of C1 a couple of days ago, & am already pretty much convinced I'm going to switch from Lightroom. Only trouble is I really like Photoshop, so I need to find a substitute for that, or pay for both. Any recommendations?

@martinpecher7229 4 жыл бұрын

You‘ll get used to it pretty quickly, I‘m sure. And don‘t forget...C1 is a non-destructive RAW editor, incl. the layer adjustments (compared to LR/PS). Give Affinity Photo a try...you‘ll probably find all the tool syou need for retouching, and it‘s a steal compared to PS. ;)

Awesome, coming from darktable, learning capture one pro and this is very useful. One question, is it possible to do zone system similar to darktable in capture one pro? Zone System is made after Ansel Adams and it's excellent in darktable. I am trying to figure out something similar in capture one pro

Thanks so much for showing this. I don't use Capture One, but think that will change. I currently use CS6 and once I upgrade to a new computer, it will either be Luminar for me or Capture One. refuse to pay for Adobe products anymore.

Huge respect for you as a photographer. How is this any different from Lr brush tool? Thanks

@notdisclosed9745 4 жыл бұрын

The Lr brush tool (and indeed radial and linear masks) in effect act as layers, so long as you can find the dots if you want to re-edit them. But the Lr tools only cover some, not all of the adjustments (for example, the individual colour adjustments, hue, saturation, luminosity) whereas most C1 adjustments can be made on layers. And the C1 layers are much easier to organise and name if you want. It’s a pity though that dust and spot removal is limited to 100 spots, and C1 does not have anything like the Lr spot visualisation functionality: have the C1 programmers never had a really dusty sensor, or photographed from near a tree teeming with tiny midges in the sky area?

I downloaded it two days ago expecting it to be really hard, but I already feel like I have a good grasp of editing. The only thing I'm confused by is importing and sessions, but then I never really understood Lightroom catalogs.

@mrsusan893 4 жыл бұрын

The biggest one up that Photoshop has is the ability to blend multiple exposures using layers. If capture 1 introduces this then I'll consider it but until then it's 100% Adobe.

@martinpecher7229 4 жыл бұрын

Remember...Capture One is a RAW editor, so all adjustments (incl. layers...unless you rasterize them) are non-destructive. PS just works differently in that respect, and I don‘t expect C1 will introduce raster blending like PS does.

@mrsusan893 4 жыл бұрын

@@martinpecher7229 Would be nice but I'm not holding my breath. If I used ND grad filters for my landscape photos I'd download the trial version, use it extensively for a month and see if I like it enough to use it permanently. Since ND grad filters are more of a destructive workflow, (mostly) I use luminosity selections to blend multiple images together in Photoshop. For people who work on a single raw file it's definitely an option but for people like me it's just not up to scratch, yet.
