Integrations rated by users

We looked through 65 user reviews, to identify which products are mentioned as Capture One integrations, and what is the users perception.

Integration rating: 4.8 (5)

Even though Capture One continues to add great features to its software, there is always the need for standards in the photo industry like PhotoShop, for example, when photo retouching is needed at an even higher level of control.

Once the basic color grading is done, essential manipulation, retouching and final result is created through Adobe Photoshop.

While you can colourgrade and correct on capture one, photoshop is gives more facility for skin retouching

Photoshop can lend a finishing touch or more dynamic editing to certain photography.

Pros
“The most useful part of this software is the ease of integration with most of the popular camera brands such as Canon.”
“I like the speed and stability of this program and the rendering of RAW images from my camera. The customer service is also amazing queries are attended to promptly.”
“Overall experience is very good. Capture one has given me a centralized solution for managing and editing my photos very easily with great features.”
Cons
“Some functions are limited to low-cost or even older cameras, which I believe would be the most negative point.”
“Maybe version 21 of C1 Pro have fixed this and problem might be at the Sony end of things. Another annoying thing is very limited amount supported lenses for lens profiles.”
“The program does not support hdr stacking and panoramas (yet). There's lack of plug-ins at current time, and only few export options (jpg, tiff, png).”
