This tutorial is well made and pleasing to watch. No hyping, no music, no hard selling. Great job
Working with graphics 20+ years and just few years ago that could considered as a miracle! And such a nice tutorial, no skipping, straight forward to the point. Really awesome!
As well Capture One is amazing software, that's made right, such an intuitive, simple and powerful at the same time.
If you would make updates policy a bit more relaxed and flexible... Perpetual license was a key point to buy C1. But a bit pricey at a regular price. As suggestion, if you drop regular price 2x, I think that 10x people would buy it, so like win-win situation.... Thanks again for tutorials!
2:49 The ability to temporarily activate the eraser brush (via holding Alt/Option) is a significant productivity booster and I was surprised to see that it wasn't featured in the recent live stream. I'm glad my proposal was eventually adopted and hope further productivity boosters like this one -- small feature, big effect -- will be considered in the future.
I certainly did mention it. :) /David
The price is too high for incremental feature add-ons. The private equity company Axcel just wants to blow up the software business to sell the business ASAP. I hate subscriptions.
The AI masking looks fantastic. Can't wait to try it on some of my more complex masked images.
I bought a perpetual license two weeks ago, and already a new update is coming with an important improvement, though not for me with my fresh license. I REALLY feel cheated... When I was in contact with support at the time of purchase because I was given the wrong activation code by the seller, I could well have gotten a hint that a new version was on the way. I don't use the program often enough that a subscription is justifiable financially. So now I feel like I bought a product only to find that the expiry date has already arrived, after a fortnight.
Hi Lelle, which date did you buy it on? Perpetual licenses that were purchased on or after September 26th include this update.
@@CaptureOne I bought it on October 10th, along with a new camera.
Then you are eligible for upgrading to the most recent version without any extra fees. It should be available for download on our website within your profile.
@@CaptureOne No, it didn't work. The code is not accepted. The same thing happened when I bought the license on the 10th of October, I had received a wrong license from the dealer who sent a new one and it worked. And now here I am again... same crap as last time. I'm getting tired of this.
Completely wasted money to update to 23... I can promise that this will be the last purchase from this company.
I bought the 2023 version with the promised 1 year update in December 2022, why doesn't Capture One live up to its promises?
Because there trying to get more money. I got the same problem. There just pushing people to Subscriptions.! if i like to go from 16.1.5 to the 16.3 i need to pay 360+ euro (Or get a discount code and still pay 200+ euro). It feels like Robbing people.!
I'm going Full on to Skylum (Luminar Neo). Full on updates and extra's for a Year and if you like the extra's you can keep it for like 40 euro after the year and not 200+ euro for a "Normal Update". A update of masking that every software already got for a longtime!
I purchased it in November of 2022 and I guess we will not get his update. Such a scam. I'll rather pay monthly for Lightroom and photoshop than Capture One.
Hi Friedrich,
For those who purchased a Capture One Pro 23 perpetual license before February 14, 2023, free updates were available until September 30, 2023.
You can find this information on our website here: support.captureone.com/hc/en-us/articles/7998068628637-New-License-Model-Changes-to-the-way-licensing-updates-and-upgrades-work#h_01GKKC3M75HV4C4D3TKRB9Y2YP
@@CaptureOne Maybe I can still find the promises back then, I think C1 promised me all the updates for 2023. That was the difference between buying before February 14th and after February 14th....
Hi, we shared these terms at the beginning of the year, and they have remained unchanged since then. If possible, could you please let us know the source of this information? It would really help.
Looks very promising. Congratulations to C1. Will try it out soon
AWESOME FEATURE! Thanks for the intro....can't wait for more Ai updates!!!
It feel like getting Robbed i got a Full license for 16.1.5 but no AI Masking (Luminar / Lightroom and on1 Raw got this all in update with out extra cost). Also got the Subject and background masking already 2 to 3 years. How is it that with a standard tool in every software. Is a thing to pay for in Capture One 23 ? It's just BS that it's only with Subscription or a other 360euro for Subject Masking.! Feels like robbing people that got the Software this summer.! If this is really going to be the pay for subject masking! I'm full on going to Luminar Neo (Color and rendering of photographs if on par with Capture one and better then LR or On1 Raw)
Hi VisualsandMoreNL. With regards to Lightroom, (Which is only available as a subscription) If you subscribe to Capture One as well, those features will also be without extra cost.
@@CaptureOne Regards to LR it's using the Masking for a lot of years already. same as the rest. And with On1 Raw and Luminar Neo it's with a Year of updates. only not the Extra's and also masking Subjects is already in the software for a long time.!
And it's BS i get Capture One pro 23 license in June and a Standard Masking feature is not getting added.
The only thing i can get is a Code to pay not 369 euro for the Update but 40% off (Still 200+ euro for a small update). this is just pure Robbing people.!
Love the software and workflow but it's just BS doing this and more or less pushing people in to a Subscription.!
Thank god Skylum is working with photographers and not just going for Extra sells for small thinks like Subject masking that every other software already got for a longtime.!
Didn´t you read how the licensing works before you Bought? "I have a license for Capture One Pro 23 purchased after February 14, 2023"
You receive major bug fixes (16.x.x) up until a new paid version (16.x) is released. The service updates (16.xx) do not include feature updates.
If you wish to get a new version of Capture One Pro, you need to buy a new license (16.x) - which will contain new features and functionality."
And why buy it when you can get a subscription with ALL the updates and you don´t need to worry and you can Cancel when you want? 🙄🙄
@@sarimner The real question is, Why is a perpetual license more expensive than a subscription when you don't get all the updates?
I bought it before 14th February.... but they didn't keep the promise
excellent presentation, thank you!
If you're new to Capture One, it's worth noting that you're not seeing the whole screen in the beginning of the video. Up above the window your seeing, outside what''s showing in the video 1 -- He's A) gone to the tools section (left side of your screen) and he's B) clicked on the "ADJUST" tab up at the top. This will show the histogram you're seeing and below that, on your screen, you'll see the layers and masks section you're seeing in this video.
Great tutorial. My question is: can Capture One Pro be used to create layers to replace the sky? Essentially to stack two photos together. The application would be Milky Way photography, where you track the sky, do several exposures, but then do a long exposure on the foreground. Then you stack the tracked exposures of the sky, and with this stack replace the background, i.e. sky of the long exposure foreground (where the stars are trails). Then stitch several of these photos into a panorama.
Hi there,
Exposure stacking will work with HDR merging, but you won't be able to do background "substitution" with a long exposure shot, as the tool will work only with HDR values. You can use Edit With to send the images to a 3rd-party app, substitute the background there, save the image back to Capture One and keep working with Panorama in Capture One.
Why does it seem to me that I should buy if the plan I bought includes the updates during that year?
Hi David, since we do not have any info about your purchases, please drop a line to our team at support.captureone.com so they can assist you with update related questions.
LOVE FEATURE!
A real plus would be the ability to draw gradient masks (linear or circular) over background masks (drawn by IA brush or magic brush)... Unless I'm mistaken, this is impossible (for the moment?).
Hey Tony, you can create a gradient mask first, then subtracts parts with the AI Eraser. However, masks and adjustments will be stacked on top of each others as independent masks. In case you want one mask to overwrite the other, please create a feature request here captureone.co/improve and our developers will take a look at it.
Thank you may I export than the layers or the masks as a .tiff multilevel file that I may use with also other programs as photoshop? Thanks, Max
There is no such option at the moment. You can use Edit With to continue editing in Photoshop, however, that would be TIFF or PSD with merged adjustments (without Layers and Masks).
@@CaptureOne Thank you guys I am planning to do some lessons on photography on line on youtube free within next year, It would be nice to be able to suggest Capture one if you find it OK.
Of course :)
Excellent intro to layers and masks. I've been wondering for a long time! Thank you.
Question: fine stray hairs are always a problem for subject selection tools in other products like those from Adobe. How well does Capture One handle them? Is there a workaround?
Hi Art, you can try to zoom in, use AI Selection Brush and Rasterize the mask. That should be a good way to work with stray hair.
amazing !
Using C! Pro for desktop, software up to date but not seeing the layers tool like yours IE, no AI brush/eraser or Subject/Background option as yours does. Just double checked and states no update and on C1 Pro build 16.2.5.9
Hi Doug, have you managed to update? If not, do you have a perpetual license or subscription?
(This feature release requires you to have a subscription, or a perpetual license that was purchased on or after September 26th, 2023.)
All is good now thanks@@CaptureOne
Masking looks good. I'm sure I could get this info on the C1 website but I'll ask here: I have a mid 2012 MacBook Pro with 10.15 OS, will the newest version of C1 work with my old laptop? Thanks

* macOS is supported for versions up to 12.6, 13.5 and 14.0.
How do you just mask skin? Ideally in a style so you can apply across a number of photos.
Do you just select subject and then manually remove the clothes?!
Or use the Ai brush to pick skin only. :)
belloooo 😍😍😍😍
Hi! New Capture One user here. The problem is that I thought I bought the perpetual version when I was in school, but my license has expired. Now I can't use it anymore and I'm not rich. I was starting to get used to it 😞 Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance!
Eric
Hi Eric, we've replied to your DM on Facebook.
I just bought capture one pro 2 months ago and this comes out 😢😢😢
Good luck. There going to let you pay full price of 40% off discount for this update (200+ euro). i got the same for 16.1.5 to this update. So i will go away from Capture One because of this behavior. And not combine it with my Luminar Neo but just use Luminar Neo (With all free updates for a Year)
Such bullshit. I can't support their practices.
you can only run one instance of Capture One at a time
Do I sell my wacom tablet? hehe great update, long awaited... Intersect and Subtract are still missong, and thats what's holding me back :(
We'll be glad to see your request posted on our forum here: captureone.co/improve Feel free to share your ideas to let them be upvoted by others.
Estas actualizaciones deben venir en el paquete completo, actualizan a cuenta gotas
Hi José, could you please clarify your question? We're a bit unsure and additional information would be helpful.
wich Version has the AI masking tools?
Version 16.3, released today.
Thank you
@@CaptureOne
can you please better explain how to apply a fully edit to a new photo with all the AI included?
Hi there, you can add all your adjustments, including the AI Mask, into a Style and then apply that Style to the rest of the images. The mask will adapt accordingly.
If I have the latest version, why don't I get those new AI tools?
Check you have version 16.3
Why does it seem to me that I should buy if the plan I bought includes the updates during that year?
@@CaptureOne
I miss intersect masks a loooooot !!!. I mean an intuitive method !!!
Hey Jose, we'd love to hear your ideas on how we can further improve AI Masking - we encourage you to create a feature improvement request at captureone.co/improve
Just tried it and sadly it's full of flaws and not up to the standard for professional work
Lightroom is light years better.
