This is how all video tutorials should be - perfectly concise with no waffling or other time-wasting, and full of excellent information presented in an understandable way.
Great tutorial Ted! Here's a huge tip I learned, when creating new mask. Create a 'Fill Mask', and apply your adjustments to the 'imagined' layered area. In your example, you wanted to brighten the main subject in your street shot. While looking at your subject, apply your desired edits until you're happy. Now this will put all areas outside of the 'imagined' mask completely out of wack... but only keep your eye on your layered area and adjust until satisfied. Right click on the mask and then select 'Clear Mask'. Any non-masked areas will revert to the original edit but your masked adjustments are intact. Now, select your brush or gradient tool and start brushing (or gadientating?)... For me, this is my favorite dodging and burning tool (and so much more). Plus you have the opacity slider to adjust if you went too far. Love the channel.
been using C1 for a couple of months now and thought i had some good strategies for chromatic aberration but this "Create masked layer from selection" technique blew my mind. thanks sooo much!
Thank you, so much.A very clear, concise and easily understood approach. Inspired me to have a go. I struggled with layers in Photoshop, and every video I watched just confused me more as there were so many approaches shown by different people. This makes so much sense as a concept that one can grasp straight away.
I've been using Capture One Pro since v9 and even bought the one crappy book that was available for it. Through the years I've upgraded every year and I must say, Ted, you've taught me more about this product in this one video than I've ever known. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE create a video tutorial series for the latest release! PLEASE!!! I would HAPPILY pay you $150 for a copy! PLEASE MAKE IT!!!!!
Super helpful! I just switched to Sony, switched to Capture One and have been having some editing frustrations since I can do everything in LR... the chromatic aberration masking was a revelation! Thank you!
Thanks Ted. Great "Let's get to it!" tutorial. Exactly what I need to finally get to grips with Capture One. I have the attention span of a Gnat, l really do, so this was great! 😊👍🇬🇧
I'm so thankful that you are highlighting C1 use in post-processing images. I've been using it for about a year now, and I find your vids informative and supportive to work-arounds that I've tried, e.g. addressing CA. This is a specific question: Do you find remarkable differences in .arw files opened in LR vs C1? I've never been able to get the P-P desired effects obtained in C1 from LR. I'm glad to have made the switch. Thanks again Ted, you are quite helpful and informative.
Great video, just the right level of detail. BTW - how do you get the Adjustment button to show next to Luma Range, that's really useful but I can't see how to get it to appear.
Very helpful, especially using Luma with gradient masks - many thanks. It does seem counter intuitive that the mask is the part that the adjustments work on though, I always though of masks as masking out the area so an effect won't apply there, but I'm sure I'll get used to that. I started on the 1 month trial of C1 a couple of days ago, & am already pretty much convinced I'm going to switch from Lightroom. Only trouble is I really like Photoshop, so I need to find a substitute for that, or pay for both. Any recommendations?
You‘ll get used to it pretty quickly, I‘m sure. And don‘t forget...C1 is a non-destructive RAW editor, incl. the layer adjustments (compared to LR/PS). Give Affinity Photo a try...you‘ll probably find all the tool syou need for retouching, and it‘s a steal compared to PS. ;)
Loving capture one but with that been said I’m spending a lot less time editing now I’ve switched to Fuji xt3 absolutely loving the film simulation. Ps happy new year.. keep up the great work :)
Thanks for the great video. I still use CO12 and learning it. My question is do you duplicate the image first so to have a working copy? I'm trying to work more with CO instead of PS. Thanks
Hi! Thank you for this video, it is super useful, and informative, especially the CA part, I am very grateful for this tip, because I was struggling a lot with it, so thank you again! Hope to see more videos from you! :) I would love to see a video from you in the future, about editing a very bad portrait in terms of skin: when it is a really bad in every way - acnes and also the tone of the skin is just not right. It would be very useful for lot of people in your interpretation, I think :)
Thank for sharing the demo. Looks exactly like Lightroom. I’m still waiting for capture one to add panorama and hdr merge. I thought they would have added it to the latest version.
Thanks so much for showing this. I don't use Capture One, but think that will change. I currently use CS6 and once I upgrade to a new computer, it will either be Luminar for me or Capture One. refuse to pay for Adobe products anymore.
The Lr brush tool (and indeed radial and linear masks) in effect act as layers, so long as you can find the dots if you want to re-edit them. But the Lr tools only cover some, not all of the adjustments (for example, the individual colour adjustments, hue, saturation, luminosity) whereas most C1 adjustments can be made on layers. And the C1 layers are much easier to organise and name if you want. It’s a pity though that dust and spot removal is limited to 100 spots, and C1 does not have anything like the Lr spot visualisation functionality: have the C1 programmers never had a really dusty sensor, or photographed from near a tree teeming with tiny midges in the sky area?
I’m a Canon user currently using Lightroom Classic. I’m lookin at getting this, upgrading to Lightroom CC, or doing something else. Where should I start, research-wise? What features/performance/whatever should I be looking at? Is it important to mention that I shoot RAW?
Awesome, coming from darktable, learning capture one pro and this is very useful. One question, is it possible to do zone system similar to darktable in capture one pro? Zone System is made after Ansel Adams and it's excellent in darktable. I am trying to figure out something similar in capture one pro
I downloaded it two days ago expecting it to be really hard, but I already feel like I have a good grasp of editing. The only thing I'm confused by is importing and sessions, but then I never really understood Lightroom catalogs.
tried it out , not a bad program but i like lightroom CC better simply for its cloud intigration and sync between the ipad app....all your photos right there and backed up ....:-)
The biggest one up that Photoshop has is the ability to blend multiple exposures using layers. If capture 1 introduces this then I'll consider it but until then it's 100% Adobe.
Remember...Capture One is a RAW editor, so all adjustments (incl. layers...unless you rasterize them) are non-destructive. PS just works differently in that respect, and I don‘t expect C1 will introduce raster blending like PS does.
@@martinpecher7229 Would be nice but I'm not holding my breath. If I used ND grad filters for my landscape photos I'd download the trial version, use it extensively for a month and see if I like it enough to use it permanently. Since ND grad filters are more of a destructive workflow, (mostly) I use luminosity selections to blend multiple images together in Photoshop. For people who work on a single raw file it's definitely an option but for people like me it's just not up to scratch, yet.
This is how all video tutorials should be - perfectly concise with no waffling or other time-wasting, and full of excellent information presented in an understandable way.
Jesus Christ why did I not look up "Capture One local adjustments" sooner? These 15 minutes taught me so much, I can't thank you enough!!!
Really clear and understandable. So many explanations leave out steps and premises and are basically useless. This one is superb!
Thanks Ted for an excellent tutorial; truly instructive examples, concise and insightful explanations - and your speedy talk is fun!
Agree completely with Andy Farrell. Great video. Gets to the point and is easy to understand. Love this.

Great Great set of videos really helpful hope you keep them going
Wonderful.... Learned more in one 15 minute clip then multiple clips with longer clip times.
For a new (test) user of C1 this was gold! Thank you!
Thanks Ted. Great "Let's get to it!" tutorial. Exactly what I need to finally get to grips with Capture One. I have the attention span of a Gnat, l really do, so this was great! 😊👍🇬🇧
Thank you fot the Tutorial, you are a good Professor
Such powerful tools! Love the CA mask, thanks for the tips!
great tutorial! thank you, I learned a lot
Thanks for the excellent tutorial, the fact that Capture ONE use a Linear Keyer as Mask open a lots of precise correction.

Thank you for superb explorations of my new (over last 2 years) favourite tool. Really helpful.

Thank you for the video. always clear and straight to the point
Thanks for making this clear and straightforward.
Very informative, I just got Capture One 23 ,Thanks
Thanks. So much easier then trying to get it from the manual.
Loved the video. The CA part is the best. Thank you 🙏

Such an awesome video would love to see a lot more of these
Thank you! So helpful.
Very informative! Thanks!
Great tutorial. Keep them coming.
great listening to you Ted
Thanks for the great video. I still use CO12 and learning it. My question is do you duplicate the image first so to have a working copy? I'm trying to work more with CO instead of PS. Thanks
Thank you for doing more in this video than my psychiatrist has done for me in 6 months .. 😉
Great video. Thanks a lot
Super useful video! Thanx
Really helpful - thanks!
superduper. you made my day sir.

Capture One masking layers my fave!
great C1 video, please make more
Awesome, very helpful video. Thanks
Thanks for sharing!!! I need to share this awesome info in my FB
Thanks so much for showing this. I don't use Capture One, but think that will change. I currently use CS6 and once I upgrade to a new computer, it will either be Luminar for me or Capture One. refuse to pay for Adobe products anymore.
Great video! I like Capture one but haven't used It that much. Can I do liquefy like In PS to make hair bigger for example?
Huge respect for you as a photographer.
How is this any different from Lr brush tool?
Thanks

thank you!
Thanks for the tips Ted!!
Enjoying your informative videos, can you Mask the same on LR/PS ?
Thank you
This was really helpful, thanks!!!

This is so incredibly helpful
Can you stitch panos in c1?
Great Video.. I am still with Adobe CC and am considering moving ..Is Capture One easier to learn
Not easier to learn. Better but not easier to learn.
I downloaded it two days ago expecting it to be really hard, but I already feel like I have a good grasp of editing. The only thing I'm confused by is importing and sessions, but then I never really understood Lightroom catalogs.

Getting more complete...:)
Why the heck doesn't Capture One have green color fringing correction options?!?!??!!??!?!
The biggest one up that Photoshop has is the ability to blend multiple exposures using layers. If capture 1 introduces this then I'll consider it but until then it's 100% Adobe.

that's good but
nuthin so special than Lr, right!?... 🤷🏽♂️
Lightroom's brush adjustments are too broad, and photoshop's is too cumbersome. This is a perfect in-between.
kingssman2 LR can do all the things in this video, but in a different way
DAMN! Too bad you can't do that in Lightroom and Photoshop for half the price a month🤔....Oh wait...😁
8:51 Yeah, she is hot! :D
Awkward pose.
Again! Adobe staffs hit dislike!
I can’t afford anything other than global adjustments! Kill me!!!
The one thing I really miss in C1 is the automatic keystone and level tools. They are there but they dont work half as good compared to LR for me
