1/30/2024 0 Comments Capture one 11 styles and presets![]() RNI does a much better job, but these Capture One presets will appeal to the photographers who want a film look but don’t know a single thing about what film looks like. In brief, Capture One Film Styles are nice, but they don’t look like film to me. RNI Films does a significantly better job when it comes to emulating the look of film and if that’s what you actually want, I recommend using that and setting your white balance to either 5600K or 3200k. They’re just really not like film and I’m steadfast on that belief. With all this said and done, I think that there is an audience that would love these looks and they’re not bad looking as they are. Here’s a quick comparison in a situation where I use the same lighting situation, same background and, for reference, you should know that whether I’m shooting in film or digital I tend to shoot the same way. Sony a7r II and a Capture One Film Style Lomography Color Negative 400 in Fujifilm GW690 III ![]() Film is what it is, and most of the time when we see scans online, they’ve been subject to a lot of personalized corrections. I’ve shot with loads of film and The Phoblographer is currently on a mission to review every film emulsion currently available on the market, so I’ve had quite a bit of time to sit there studying what each does and how scans can affect their looks. At the same time, it’s pretty difficult to screw up a black and white vs color. To be fair, the black and white simulations are closer to film, but even so they’re still not perfect. If you actually shoot film, you’ll understand that these looks aren’t really what film does. And in many ways that makes sense–they’re a digital photography company whose only analog bit of history is the Mamiya company whom they purchased and more or less gutted. To that end, I feel like Capture One is trying to go after that group as a means of getting $69 out of their pockets rather than trying to inspire photographers to actually shoot film while providing guidance. What this reminds me of is a Facebook group that annoys the absolute hell out of me called “Looks Like Film.” I feel the group doesn’t at all do justice to what good film photography does because there are many photographers in that group who have never shot film. Film 1, film 2, black and white 12 is pretty lazy as an idea and what it tells me is that they’re trying to emulate something that looks like film but that they’re not going to tell you that inspiration. ![]() I see it originally in the idea of their naming convention. But if you’re looking to actually get the look of film, I have to be honest and say this is the first Capture One product I consider to be complete rubbish. Image QualityĬapture One Film Styles are completely okay as actual presets. But this is based on, again, what may be an unpopular but very personal opinion. In my opinion, they do absolutely fantastic with Fujifilm RAW files, not so incredibly with Sony RAW files, not bad with Canon, and okay with Nikon. Over the months that I’ve been using them I’ve tested them with Nikon, Sony, Canon, and Fujifilm RAW files. As you scroll over each, you’ll get a full image preview. When you open up Capture One, you can apply the styles by going to the according tab and applying them. Presets can be a great way to breeze through work and get back to shooting and booking clients, but they can also be a great way to start out in your editing process with your own adjustments. For the photographers who think using presets is absolutely stupid, I’d like you to kindly reconsider. Many other options out there do things like this. ![]() Each of these have a +/- to give a variant on each look. There are a number of color simulations and black and white simulations. As a film shooter on the regular, Capture One Film Styles is sort of an awkward situation.Ĭapture One Film Styles is a pack of film simulation presets you can unbundle in Capture One. For those photographers, it means film-like presets. One of the biggest things people want to do is more or less what they did in Lightroom, but with the enhancements and superior RAW editor in Capture One. Indeed, with more people coming to Capture One, there are great reasons why they needed to do something like this. But recently, Capture One decided to make their own. Capture One Film Styles has a brand new way of altering your images.Ĭapture One Film Styles, as it was properly called, were styles (otherwise known as presets) created by a third party developer. ![]()
