 Capture One Pro 7 is a major release built on a new processing engine with new and advanced professional tools that dramatically boost out-of-the-box image quality, offering exquisite detail and color rendition. Powerful digital asset management functionality, derived from years of technical expertise built into the Media Pro catalog system, has been added to offer more options to select, search and organize image files. And the world’s most advanced tethering shooting solution now includes Live View support for selected DSLRs.

A Revolution in Image Quality
Advancements in the Capture One raw processing engine yield vastly more accurate rendition of details and colors. While medium format camera systems with Capture One Pro achieve the highest-level results, DSLR users will see stellar performance from their cameras too. A highly advanced noise reduction algorithm has been added that gives stunning performance at even high ISO levels. Precision adjustment tools offer greatly enhanced dynamic range for astonishing details in both shadows and highlights, reveal fine details and structure, reduce the effect of haze and give images a more three- dimensional look and add local contrast and saturation to images for extra punch. The new OpenCL implementation yields faster browsing and higher-speed image processing.

Powerful Digital Asset Management
Next to the familiar and proven sessions approach, Capture One Pro users can now organize their image files via comprehensive and flexible catalogs. Incorporating powerful digital asset management features found in Media Pro, they can work with multiple catalogs at the same time; share catalogs with other users; switch between different catalogs without relaunching; easily tag images for later search and retrieval; and browse and adjust images when the original images files are offline.

Workflow Advances
From capture to final output, Capture One Pro 7 has been optimized for efficiency. Capture One Pro’s support for instant tethered shooting is renowned for its ease (just plug in and shoot) with both medium format and high-end DSLR cameras. Now Live View is available for selected DSLRs aiding composition and critical focus.

Capture One 7 Feature Highlights

New Catalog

Improved Filtering

Updated Local Adjustments

New Lens Profiles

Improved Clarity Options

New Processing Engine with Raw Rendering Advancements
Phase One engineers excel at converting raw image data into accurate RGB images, obtaining the highest file quality. For Capture One Pro 7, engineers have designed an advanced Bayer Interpolation algorithm for stellar out-of-the-box detail and color rendition.

Noise Reduction
A brand new highly advanced noise reduction method has been added providing stunning results at even high ISO levels. Individual optimization of best compromise between minimum noise and maximum details has been designed for each camera that Capture One Pro 7 supports. A custom adjustment tool controls the amount and type of noise reduction.

Highlight and Shadow Recovery
The greatly enhanced HDR tool squeezes dynamic range out of each image -- bringing out more details in both the shadows and the highlights.

Clarity
Reveals more details and structure in landscape images; reduces the effect of haze and gives images a more three-dimensional look. The clarity tool helps add local contrast and saturation to images for an extra punch. For portraits, you can use negative clarity to achieve a more dreaming look.

Automated lens correction and improved LCC workflow
Capture One Pro 7 has a selection of default lens profiles that can be chosen to automatically correct any unwanted optical issues. Images are automatically adjusted for lens failings, such as distortion and chromatic aberration using be-spoke profiles for popular medium format and DSLR lenses. A more efficient Lens Cast Correction workflow includes more convenience in tagging images with batch creation and application of LCC profiles.

Local Adjustments
Non-destructive local adjustments let you edit targeted image areas. Improved local adjustments like gradient mask, fill mask and auto mask help fine-tune the details. Common retouch jobs are handled with a few strokes to control colors, exposure, contrast, brightness, saturation, sharpening and moiré.

Digital Asset Management in Catalogs
Next to the familiar and proven sessions approach, Capture One Pro users can now organize their image files via comprehensive and flexible catalogs. Incorporating powerful digital asset management features found in Media Pro, they can work with multiple catalogs at the same time; share catalogs with other users; switch between different catalogs without relaunching; easily tag images for later search and retrieval; and browse and adust images when the original images files are offline.

Instant Tethered Capture
Import and view images as you shoot them with the world’s most advanced tethered capture solution. Use the Capture Pilot for iOS or a web browser to view and rate images when you are away from the computer.

Live View for DSLRs
Live View mode on selected DSLRs helps improve and speed up image composition, light and focusing adjustments.

Adjustable Preview
While working with catalogs, a small exact-match, adjustable preview is created for each original file, so that you can work on images very quickly even when the original raw images are offline.

Processing Recipes
Processing Recipes define the output parameters of an image, such as file format and scaling. Different types of jobs require different types of processing parameters. Define recipes for you most common type of processing task so you have them ready next time.

Process to Additional File Formats
Deliver image files to your clients and colleagues in whatever format, size, or resolution they need. You can now process to several additional file formats. Besides JPEG, TIFF, Capture One Pro 7 offers processing to JPEG XR or JPEG 2000 files with higher or lossless compression, to PNG files, to one-layer PSD files or to calibrated DNG files.

New OpenCL-enabled Processing
A new OpenCL implementation extends the power of your computer’s graphics-processing unit, speeding processing, for faster image output.
