Technical Specifications

Known Issues in Capture One 5.1.2

Below you will find a list of known issues for Capture One 5.1.2 at the time of shipping.

General: 

  • Live Preview for P 65+ and P 40+ requires a Digital Back firmware update, which enables Live Preview support. 
  • Using a large preview image size will affect performance.
  • ICC version 4 profiles and some ICC version 2 profiles are not supported for Mac OS Leopard, Windows 7, and Windows Vista.
  • Setting the white balance on a connected camera from the Camera tool is supported for Phase One Digital Backs and selected Mamiya Digital Backs. It is not available for Canon and Nikon DSLR cameras. 
  • Sessions are not cross platform compatible. 
  • For Canon 1D Mark II, 1Ds Mark II, 1D Mark II N: These cameras only support remote capture via the FireWire port. Clear any messages on the LCD panel of the camera before connecting the camera, otherwise capturing will be disabled. 
  • For Canon 5D Mark II, 5D, 20D, 500D/Rebel T1i, 450D/Rebel XSi, 400D/Rebel XTi, and 350D/Rebel XT: Set the camera’s communication setting to PC connection or Normal to enable remote capture. Do not use thePrint/PTP or PTP setting. 
  • Browsing folders containing unsupported image files may affect application performance.  
  • Image previews created with a version prior to Capture 4.7 will be updated with Capture One 5.1.2. The first time you access folders with existing Capture One previews the application performance can be slow. 
  • Presets made with Capture One 5.1.2 may not be compatible with older versions of Capture One.
  • Do not open the shutter on the camera prior to opening the Live Preview window. Doing so will generate errors on the digital back after closing the Live Preview window. The recommended procedure for using Live Preview is to first open the Live Preview window, then open the shutter on the camera, use Live Preview as desired, when done close the shutter on the camera, and close the Live Preview window.
  • For Leaf backs, the camera body must be set in preferences before connecting the back.
  • When using a Leaf back in a tethered setup, please make sure to use a FireWire interface that can supply at least 12W of power and a Leaf FireWire cable.
  • When attaching a Leaf back to a computer with Capture One running, firmware update may start automatically. Do not interfere with this process that may take a few minutes.
  • For Leaf files, LCC is currently not supported. If needed the files can be corrected using Leaf Capture’s Lens Calibration feature first and then taken to Capture One.
  • For Leaf backs, Capture One only supports shooting tethered to compressed files.  

Mac: 

  • Shooting tethered with some Canon cameras on Mac OS 10.6.2 may for some hardware configurations, sporadically hang the application during image transfer for up to about 2 minutes. No such issues have been observed on Mac OS 10.5.8.
  • When you have disconnected a camera do not reconnect a camera until the Camera tool status changes to "No Camera Attached". 
  • Certain version (e.g. 2.4) of the Logitech Control Center may conflict with the tethered capture functionality of Capture One. We strongly recommend upgrading to the latest version of the Logitech Control Center.
  • It is only possible to show the Capture One toolbar in “Icon Only” mode.
  • Using e.g. a US laptop keyboard it might be preferable to change some of the standard keyboard shortcuts.

Windows: 

  • Library tool cannot be closed or moved from the default tab. 
  • Windows drivers are required for some older models of Canon DSLR cameras to be able to shoot tethered. These drivers are available from Canon’s web site. 
  • Connecting some Canon cameras to the computer after launching Capture One might result in tethered capture being unavailable. If you experience this, connect the camera to the computer prior to launching Capture One.
