![]() ![]() But it’s not about matching the key to something in the name of the adjustment. In fact this was another recurring refrain from the folks who are angry about this. You can do this for the main exposure adjustments, and the shadow and highlight adjustments.Īt first glance these shortcuts might make no sense, as they don’t seem to correspond to anything. Speed edit is a new way to edit using the keyboard and mouse, and allows you to go through images quickly without having to keep going to different parts of the interface.īasically you hold down a certain key, and you can drag the mouse left or right to increase or decrease the value. I saw this narrative doing the rounds a lot, and it’s not really the case. ![]() It’s not just some new keyboard shortcuts. So, before I explain what Speed Edit is, let me explain what it’s not. It’s one of those things that once you get used to it, it will change the way you work with the software, especially if you need to edit a lot of images quickly. The next big headline feature is “Speed Edit”. If anyone from Capture One is listening, you need to work on this to eliminate this problem. They can be really good, but depending on the image you may get this luminous black effect that requires a bit (or sometimes a lot) of extra work to get around. Other times though, they’re not so great.Įither way, the results are a bit disappointing. On some images the results are really amazing. You can get more natural colours by carefully picking the shadow tones, and sometimes you can get really good results, better in fact than you can achieve in Lightroom. At least that’s the theory.Ĭomparing it to Lightroom, I often find that the intensity is much less than you can achieve in Lightroom when using it at the maximum setting. Well, by selecting a shadow tone using the Capture One Dehaze tool, you can compensate for this and the result is more normal colours. If you’ve used Dehaze in other software you’ve probably noticed that at high values, you often get a colour shift, usually towards blue. The colour picker allows you to select the shadow tone. If you want to add fog, you drag it in the other direction. So basically you drag the slider like you do in most other applications to apply a level of dehaze. This new adjustment comes int he form of a slider, and a colour picker with a pop-up menu allowing you to switch between automatic colour detection and manual. So, in Capture One 21 they have introduced a new Dehaze tool, which in the default layout lives below the high dynamic range tool. You can do it with a collection of tools and some masking, but it’s not the same as just using levels or curves. ![]() When I tried to recreate a version of it myself a while ago, I found that out the hard way. A proper dehaze adjustment is actually a fairly complex algorithm. I’ve seen commentary suggesting that Dehaze is just levels, or curves, or a few people even suggested that Dehaze is just the same as using clarity. There are lots of techniques that you can use to approximate it, but there wasn’t a proper dehaze tool until Capture One 21.īefore I get into the new implementation, I need to clarify a couple of things about Dehaze, as there is a lot of misconception floating around about the adjustment. Dehazeįor as long as I’ve been covering Capture One, people have been asking me about how to do Dehaze in the software. I’ll also look at whether or not the criticism of this release is justified. Putting that aside for now, In this review I wanted to focus on a couple of things, namely the headline features of Dehaze and Speed Edit, and I’ll discuss some of the other improvements too. The new version of Capture One has been accompanied by a bit of a backlash about the amount of new features. It’s been a little while now since Capture One 21 was released. ![]()
