Capture One PRO is RAW workflow software designed for the professional photographer. Capture One allows you to load in RAW files from the most commonly used DSLR cameras or shoot tethered to the computer. The intuitive Capture One RAW workflow guides you through image capture, editing and enhancement in a few simple steps and converts your RAW files into TIFF-RGB, TIFF-CMYK or JPEG images on-the-fly.

Capture One is renowned for producing exceptional image quality with fine details, accurate colors and virtually no noise. This is also why Capture One is used and recommended by professional photographers around the world. It is a great privilege for Phase One to be able to work closely with professional photographers in order to further develop the Capture One processing core and workflow tools for mutual benefit.
