The versions: Capture One 4, PRO and DB

Here is a quick explanation to clarify the naming and versions of Capture One 4. 4 indicates the software generation. The previous generation was 3. Included in the software is Capture One 4 DB (for digital backs only), Capture One 4 PRO (for digital backs and DSLRs), and Capture One 4 (for digital backs and DSLRs but without PRO features like Tethered Shooting and Styles). How you activate the software defines which version you are running. To confirm which version is activated, select License from the Capture One drop-down menu and the information screen appears. We have had a number of releases in the Capture One 4 series. Our current release is Capture One 4.5.

Redefine your raw processing with Capture One 4 PRO

Capture One 4 PRO software is now available for download! This is a landmark software release for Phase One and we are introducing many new changes.

Our R&D team have worked hard to develop a software architecture that can be quickly updated for new DSLR support and new features or functions. This new architecture is an engineering marvel that will allow us to keep up to rapid OS changes for both Mac and PC. I am also proud to note that both Mac and PC versions now look and operate in a similar manner.

The most important aspect of Capture One 4 PRO is that the functionality and workflow of version 3 is retained with all of the enhanced quality advantages of Capture One 4 PRO! The ColorEditor is now integrated, Styles are enhanced, and new creative tools have been added. Our breakthrough Lens tools prove that world class optical correction can be applied to almost any lens with spectacular results, regardless of camera platform.

We have a great story on the image for the new Capture One 4 PRO box by Tim Griffith. The architectural work of Tim Griffith is so focussed upon capture and with our own focus upon capture it seemed like the perfect opportunity to work with a creative icon. Look for the whole story on Tim's shoot in the next issue of RAWNEWS+.
