- In this photography editing tutorial, we're going to look at one of my favorite editing software applications - Capture One.
Capture One is an incredible application for editing RAW files. Compared to Adobe Lightroom it offers much more power and options however the user interface is quite different. Here are 5 tips to get you started working in Capture One Pro faster.
If you're used to using Adobe Lightroom, Capture One can seem like a higher learning curve. The interface is quite different, but if you learn a few basic things it can get you going quickly with photography editing.
In this video I'll cover sessions vs catalog, the customizable interface, working tools, adjustment layers and output options.
You can download a free trial version of Capture One here:

I'm new to photography. Shooting with a Fujifilm XT2. Thanks for helping me get started with Capture One. This is the best quick tutorial I've seen.
I saw hundred 'capture-one-pro get started' video's but this, its definitly the best.
Thank you.
Thank you very much for this tutorial video. I just got an X-T2 and heard a lot of people suggesting to use Capture One. At first the interface was very confusing, now after watching your video it feels very interesting and simple. Thanks again, it was very articulate.
You are an amazing teacher, just starting with Capture One !!!!
Just started with Capture One for Fujifilm and love the rendering of my images, much better than LR or On1. For Fuji this is the way to go!
Hey Carter, could you tell me how you got the camera icon near your name? I've looked everywhere but can't seem to find it.
This was a great intro. I’m trying to move to Capture One for my Fuji files. I’d love to see you do some more of these. Thanks.
Thank you for this, I'm just starting on C1, gone through a few of their videos, but was still not real clear on sessions, appreciate your clearing it up and its usefulness.
Great video man! You just gave me some confidence to fire up capture one and mess around with it more.
One really handy feature of Output is that you can create your own process recipes, as well as outputing the same photograph(s) to multiple sizes and places which one click. For example, I've got one created that is sized for Instagram and outputs to a Google Drive folder. I can send a photo there at the same time I'm sending a print version for a client, as well as web version for my website. Spend 5 minutes setting custom process recipes up once, and then you;ll save a lot of time whenever you output.
You teach beautifully...👌 just started using capture one this week.... Really loving the sessions feature 👍👍👍
I was a photoshop/lightroom guy for many years..when i made the switch from Canon to Sony i downloaded the express version and that began my love for this program...yes it has a learning curve however i now spend alot less time jumping between programs to get the results i want. Plus they contantly do informative webinars on there site when they add new features and walk you through the editing process. I must say that when they added layers and now luminosity adjustments i never turned back...really guys give it a shot its the most professional software i have ever used.
Very helpful. I’m a Lightroom user, but I definitely will like to give Capture ONE a try!!! 😃
You're not alone! I'm going to be doing a video soon on comparing them head to head.
Awesome info and clarity. I'm making the move to Capture One and you have made it just that much easier.
amazing teacher, just starting with Capture One !!
This is an excellent video. I learned more in 13 minutes than in a couple of hours trudging through trying to figure Capture One out on my own. Never having used either, I tried Capture One because of the free 30 day trial. I don't know anything about Lightroom and I may not ever find out at this rate. Not sure if the learning curve is easier with Lightroom but your tutorial is making me lean towards Capture One.
So pleased you did this Ted. Yesterday I bought Capture Pro 11 and am a little confused to say the least. Love your channel. I always eagerly look forward to your valuable insights. Have no idea where you get the energy to fit in all that you do - rock on!
Thank you! This was very helpful!
I used to hate Capture One in the past because how complicated it is, but then ever since I started shooting in the studio with the tethered setup, Capture One became my favorite. Although I don’t like its spotting tool very much, I’d rather shoot, edit and export from Capture 1 then doing the critical editing in Photoshop.
Hao - do you do color correction in C1 then the tools and layers stuff in Photoshop.
Yes, I do, I really like the color correction tool in C1 cause it comes in color wheel form rather than hue bars in Adobe apps. In Photoshop I mostly use it for spotting and layer mask.
Interesting
Great video. I'd love to see more regarding your editing workflows. I'm a recent Nikon defector and have move to Fuji. I quickly found out that LR does not play nicely with the wonderful colors coming out of my XT3 and after trialing C1 I'm really impressed. A lot to learn but love the versatility. Thanks for the great video.
Id be really interested in a tutorial/workflow comparison between Capture One and Lightroom with the x-trans RAF files from the Fuji. I love Lightroom but I really don't like adding process steps to get my x-trans files to look "right"
Great video. Trialing Capture One for my new Sony A7iii and this helped a lot. Trying to get off the Adobe train.
As I am new to this I am excited that this video is the first one that made sense. Thank you.
Hey Ted, thanks for your video, I'm learning so much! Please, let me know what aspects or tools you prefer on C1, what do you like more than LR?
Just downloaded Capture One 20 for Fujifilm. Found your video a really useful basic intro. Going to have to search out your other ones now. Thanks.
I just love Capture One Pro. I learned it before Lightroom. Still so much to learn but the company has tons of tutorials.
Thank you soooo much for this,i was pulling my hair out my bald head,hahah,you are da man
Hey Ted! Love the channel. The Capture One video was excellent. It's the first explanation of sessions that intruky understood! I've had C1 but have like you said been intimidated to use it - think I'll start this weekend and start downloading my pics to it to manage the library and my workflow. Thanks!
Thanks for the video Ted! Capture One is a phenomenal raw converter. I love that my Phase One digital back from the mid 2000’s is still supported by the latest Capture One software and the latest version is still FREE for any Phase One back owners. Quality and Integrity.
Greetings from east of the Trinity. I just installed Capture One and this was a nice starting point in learning to use it.
Great introductory video Ted! Wish something like this had been available when I started out with Capture One. This software paired up with Affinity Photo is just unbeatable in my opinion!
Great video. I wanted to give Capture One a try (as a Fuji shooter) but wasn't sure I'd enjoy jumping into a different workflow, you really put it down there and made it look pretty simple, thanks!
Great video!! I´ll try Capture one for sure! Btw, how do you do to force youtube to play your video at maximum resolution (4k), even if I´m watching on a small video box? that´s grat
Fantastic video. Thank you for the informative tips and tricks.
Greatv C1 opener. I'm just switching over (Fuji shooter) and was feeling a little flummoxed until now. Looking forward to more. Awesome content, as ever.
Just started using capture one and I love it! The only thing still holding me in Lightroom is using all of my former presets. I know capture one has their "styles", but there is limited options and they're expensive.
great vid. Very efficient use of time. and tones of good info!
Thanks for this Ted! I just bit the bullet and got Capture One. I did wonder if all the hype was justified, but the difference it's made with my Fuji RAW files is truly staggering!
Learned sooooooo much with just 13minutes of info! Thank you!
Greetings Ted great video, can you do the same with Luminar 2018
Great video, really clear and helpful and just the right pace for me, thanks!
I love your teaching style!
Excellent, excellent tutorial!! Thank you so much. I like all of your videos and have learned so much from them. You're a very talented teacher! Because you have made these videos, I had the confidence to download the trial version of Capter One (20) and give it a try. I will probably end up buying the full version, too.
Great summary !!! Thanks
Great video Ted I have the 30 day trial does C1 do focus stacking and exposure bracketing like LR PS?
Great explanation and mini walkthru. Capture One should hire you.
Terrific video - clear, informative & absolutely superb production!
I would love to see some portrait retouching tutorial on capture one. Thank you.
Great video. Got capture one but a bit lost. So very helpful
Very helpful, thanks!
Simply the best and easiest tutorial for beginners
Hey Chuck, Art or Ricko, whatever your name is, thank you for being here ! You made me a happy man !! Your video's are of such top notch quality that I am wondering whether your memorized a scripted story line or if the whole thing pops spontaneously out of your mouth. Kidding aside..... thanks man, I have yet to hear or see something that comes even close as to this good.!!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Great tutorial ! seems you haven't done addditional tutorials on c1 ... or am I missing something ?
Thanks for this - really helpful, fast way of getting to grips with COP. What I'd really like to understand more is exactly what these tools are doing in the image - for example, clarity works with midtone contrast, right? Thanks.
This video makes me wish my Lr/Ps CC acct. didn't just renew for the year. Clearly it's time to check out more of Capture One.
I bought capture one yesterday because of the cyber Monday deal. I am still on lightroom 6 and never wanted to go to the subscription model. I am looking forward to playing around with it
Hi. I usually use presets for most of my pictures in Adobe Lightroom. I was wondering whether I can do the same for Capture One or not.
Amazing video, thank you! This will make it so much easier! The learning curve still kind of terrifies me! How long did it take you to get used to it? Coming off of years in lightroom.... The other thing I worry about is lack of iPad app. How do you manage your files while traveling? My current travel workflow is that I import to lightroom on my iPad and then do the culling there. Then when I get home I import to my desktop and external hard drive. Any similar workflows using C1 while traveling? Thanks for any input.
How would you recommend migrating a photo library/catalog from Lightroom to Capture 1?
There is an import tool in Capture One that will do it for you.
Hi Ted, thanks for the tips, the only option i can't find in C1 is the HDR, can you do this on layers or with different images?
Nice tutorial and easy to follow I am new to Capture One and am impressed! Can you maybe touch on syncing photos, batch processing and tethering?
Fantastic. I'm working on transitioning from Lightroom to Capture 1. I've grown tired of Adobe's constant updates with totally unnecessary changes! Great introductory video!!
One thing you hadn't mentioned that I thought was brilliant is version/pricing. If you don't need the full CaptureOne experience, but need the basic Lightroom styled tools, you can get a slightly slimmer version of the software (that has everything you showed) that is specific to your camera for ~1/10 the price. I got the Sony version that does all this and more, but it's specific to Sony cameras. I thought that was an awesome way of helping people out.
Excellent point.
Only for Sony
Cole Runnels I don’t think that’s an advantage. Over the years I’ve used many different cameras and a cool thing to do is to open old raw files with new versions of raw converters as the get better an you may in fact be surprised how your raw files from 10yrs agora look now.
If someone is just starting out in photography with a Sony cam, it's fantastic. Free version of Capture One for Sony shooters? Who does that??? Upgrade to the Sony Pro version for $79? Yeah, cool.
Yeah, that "advantage" ONLY exists for Sony users, Canon / Nikon / Fuji / Pentax shooters don't get that perk, and unfortunately while we're on the topic, Phase One still has a vendetta against Pentax since they make a competing medium format camera, and AFAIK Fuji's medium format digital camera is still an unknown; hopefully Phase One decides to play nice with all other medium format cameras in the long run...
Many Many full-frame shooting pros / hobbyists are switching to Sony, though, so that particular caveat is becoming moot for all of them lol...
Hi
Great video, one step closer to knowing what I'm doing ha! Have you done a video talking about water marks and removing things from photos with clone or healing tool?
Thanks. Just downloaded the 30 day trial.
So you’re last video made me test the theory of how capture one handles raw better (or in a different way) than adobe raw. My findings are I love capture ones raw interpretation?
And after downloading the trial I also find its way more intuitive than Lightroom and I’m hooked.
Thank you for explaining the sessions, that’s how I’ve been working and I like it so far.
You’re videos are great! Thumbs up!
Hi, I’m very new to Capture One so have potentially a steep learning curve ahead of me. Thanks for sharing your quick tutorial, very helpful. What I would like to see you do, maybe you have already, is something on batch processing.
spot on this video!
Thank you very much!
I know this is old but feel still relevant. I have used capture one for about 8 years now. There are still things LR can do the COP can't such as HDR and Pano stitching so you need LR for those functions or any other 3rd party application.
I never keep JPGs on my system or in files as I feel if I need a JPG I just export one. But part of my work flow is to save the TIFF files in my output folder so if a i need an image it is there. Like Lightroom if you then select go edit in Photoshop from the main browser then save it in Photoshop, it places the saved file in with the RAW images. You then have to transfer that file to your output folder very painful. So I set up a export recipe that saves the TIFF in the output folder and opens Photoshop automatically, then when finished in Photoshop its saved in the output folder. As long as your recipe is ticked its as simple as pressing CTRL-D all done in one action.
Hope this makes sense lol.
2 things im looking for that lighroom will never implement:
- 32 bit image editing
- Liquify type tool
What's the best option for Fuji files? Iridient and Lr combo which requires no new learning or Capture one which requires a lot of new learning?
Super helpful....THANK YOU! I had just downloaded the trial and couldn't do ANYTHING, was about to uninstall. I am a LR user. Your tutorial was very helpful and I saved my first edited photograph from an A7RIII using C1..which looked horrible as to skin tones originally, NOW great thx to your help.
Can you do a video on editing the Milky Way in Capture One?
Currently using the built-in Photos app on Mac for my photo management / editing. It’s still basic, but the latest update brought a lot of nice editing features, but I might end up using Capture One on Windows.
Also, a topic suggestion: can you show us how to make photos look more interesting in post. Mine always turn out bland (especially landscapes / architecture)...
Super nice video. Thank you very much.
I'm moving away from Lightroom because I don't like the idea of monthly subscription and am now looking for alternatives. Capture One looks like a pretty good option. From what I've heard it is one of the best RAW processor for Fujifilm RAW. Thanks for the quick tutorial!
Hello!
any idea when the software will be fully compatible with the new nikon z6/z7?
I’ve tried C1 in the past and really liked it initially, but got frustrated with the learning curve and went back to LR. I’ll have to give it another go! Would love some info on transitioning/moving existing LR catalog to C1.
Can you try the Fuji raw files on C1 vs LR and tell us what you prefer?
New to your page. Trying to decide which is best for me- Capture One Or Light Room?
Many thanks for the introduction! The first questions which came up: 1. Can you easily move content of the session folders to a catalog? 2. Can you search for keywords across all sessions? 3. Is Capture One also available for Android? 4. What are the features one could need in Lightroom and can't find it in Capture One? 5. What are the features to assign keywords to the pictures? In LR you can add keywords that already include detailed keywords. 6. Do you know if there are any plans to integrate the great Map function into Capture One? Looking forward to see more about Capture One. Great channel. Love to watch it. Kind regards from Bavaria, Germany!
is that windfarm outside lubbock? haha I live in west texas and it looks familiar!
Nice video, I wish if you have time to take a look on luminar too and tell us what do you think about it
Do you happen to have a new discount code for COP 12?
Thanks great video
Capture one will be looking more attractive with Adobe testing the new pricing for the photography plan. Definitely going to be trying capture one and will be switching if I like it. Best part for me is it's a one off payment.
C1 is an en vogue topic.
Most things that I hear about what people like & dont is more a reflection of their individual decisions on how to use it.
In LR, you can simply export folders from the one large catalogs into smaller catalogs per project. This serves as a great “to do” list when you’re actually completing work for a client. For things you want to always have access to, there are collections. That’s the same functionality you described in C1.
What lens do you use in these tuts ?
Great quick start! I wish C1 had a "quick edit" solution, maybe I am missing it. I want to simply snag an image on my desktop then re-output it to the desktop...nothing more. Having to mess with Sessions is a nuisance. Pshop does this easily. Did I miss the solution to this?
i'm definitly taking a look at capture one as i just got a fuji xt3 and the interface seems really well done ! Just a note on the lightroom catalogue thing ... i usualy create a new catalogue in the folder of the picture i want to edit, so pretty much works like a session ... i have the lightroom catalogue in the same folder with the pictures in it and that makes it easy to transfert as well so not really much difference there ...
Is it possible to have a catalog stored in a nas? My Mac is always short on storage
Ted, I am having difficulty grasping the crop function of Capture one. Can you do a video on basics like cropping. It isn't like lightroom and I just don't get it.
Thanks you, easy to understand.i was looking for someone who would show the basics.. you talk very fast but I can always rewind😊
What about a keyboard remap for Lightroom to C1? Also tips based on "if you do this in Lr this is how you accomplish it in C1"
Capture One actually comes with a Lightroom keyboard setup you can switch to and you can assign pretty much anything to anything inside Capture One - it is very flexible. As tempting as it is, it is best to use what Capture One uses and just get used to it eg Capture One uses C for Crop rather than R in LR - C makes a whole lot more sense to me than R :)
Have 2 >s. One; Are you forced to use the cloud? Two; can one do Focus stacking?
Question sir...... can you store your Session/ Catalog on a external drive / Like I do for lightroom.
Great fast intro to Capture One Pro! I'm not a fan of the subscription base of LR/PS went to. Are you still using photoshop for more in-depth editing?
A little bit but I'm finding Capture One to be the go to for me.
Awesome intro. Caught my interest. I am sick of the Adobe subscription model, and I think I will switch to Capture One.
In as much as I like Capture 1, I'm still confused with the basic organization of Library/Catalog/Collections etc. How can one (e.g.) redo naming a 'catalog collection', how can one cut an paste 'user collection' etc, for Capture One doesn't follow the folder structure where I have usually stored my pics. The reading files, editing pictures is really wonderful, though.
