New Heal and Clone tools in Capture One’s latest update are both easier and faster to work with, while providing the high image quality that Capture One is known for.
Now there is no limitation on the number of heal points per layer, opening up exciting new possibilities for retouching and removing distracting objects, right within Capture One.
In this webinar, Join David for a tour of the new features and how best to apply them to your photos.
Capture One Pro is a complex application that bundles professional tools, designed for image editing. Upon program startup, you are welcomed by a screen where you can view an intro video, as well. Price and Availability. Both the update to Capture One 20 and Capture One for Nikon are available starting today. As mentioned above, the update is free for all current Capture One 20 owners, but.
- I bought it because Capture One abandoned (iView) Media Pro, which I’ve used to catalogue and review my photos since the 90s. Capture One 20 can open and convert Media Pro files. That was enough for me. I like that it can open multiple files simultaneously, rather than the cumbersome method that Lightroom uses, version 6 anyway.
- Capture One Pro lets you edit files from all major camera brands. Or, save on the same powerful software with a version that lets you edits files exclusively from Fujifilm, Sony or Nikon cameras. All four products include the same powerful editing and organizing tools.

You can try Capture One for free. Current licensee holders get the upgrade for free. What this update is about is far less round tripping into Photoshop for cloning and healing. With powerful new tools, Capture One Pro 20.1 makes it easier than ever to cover up spots, repair your photos, and track your changes.
How Much Is Capture One Pro
As I’ve shared, I use Capture One when in the studio and Adobe Creative Suite when traveling. I attended the press briefing for the launch and Capture One has the user experience in mind. The team has developed a new activation flow with new dialogues, sample images, and interface guidance that make it faster and easier than ever to become a Capture One user. In addition, the company has advanced its Lightroom Catalog importer, and together it not only makes it easier to start using Capture One, but easier to migrate without missing a step.
