More power to the Color Editor in Capture One Pro 6
December 23, 2010 2 Comments
The Advanced Color Editor in Capture One Pro 6 may look identically to the one in version 5, but the adjustment ranges has been dramatically expanded.
Now you can achieve your desired color corrections often with just a single pick for each color.
Left image is straight out of the camera. With cold flat early morning winter light hardly any colors show up in this image. Right image is after color correction with the Color Editor ‘s advanced tools.
How I did it
Three color picks has been added to bring back some of the colors and to turn it into a much more interesting picture.
1 Red color pick on the building. Saturation and Lightness has been increased to bring attention towards the building.
2 Blueish color pick in the clouds. In order for the sky to stand out and be different from the snow, the Saturation has been increased and the Lightness decreased
3 Dark wood color pick on the fence. By increasing Saturation and Lightness you bring back the colors of the fence almost as if you have been using a fill-in flash
