NEWEST FEATURES AND IMPROVEMENTS
Capture One 12 is the latest version of our powerful software that delivers better color, faster performance, and more creative control. We have introduced some exciting new features and improvements to enhance your editing experience and help you achieve your artistic vision.
One of the standout features in Capture One 12 is the advanced masking functionality. With Luminosity Masks, you can now make adjustments to specific ranges of luminosity. This means you can apply shadow recovery to the darkest shadows or add clarity to the lightest parts of an image, giving you endless possibilities for fine-tuning your photos.
Another major enhancement is the Linear Gradient tool, which takes gradient masks to a whole new level. With this tool, you can rotate, feather, and adjust a mask with unprecedented precision. The brand-new Parametric Masking Engine allows for adjustments in the size, shape, and symmetry of the masks, giving you complete control over the gradient.
In addition to linear gradients, we have also introduced Radial Gradient Masks. These masks can be adjusted, rotated, and moved after creation, giving you extreme control over the desired effects. Use them for custom vignettes, creative effects, or to draw attention to specific areas of your image.
We have also made significant updates to the user interface of Capture One 12, optimizing colors, iconography, and general design for long working sessions. Our goal is to make discovery, experimentation, and customization as easy as possible, so you can focus on your creative process.
To streamline your workflow, we have introduced intelligent adjustments copying. When copying adjustments between images, Capture One will automatically detect changes, saving you time and effort. Image-specific adjustments like composition or spot removal are ignored by default, but you have the option to include them manually if needed.
For those who love using keyboard shortcuts, we have added a Keyboard Shortcut Search feature. Now you can easily search for any feature and customize the shortcuts to suit your workflow. This will help you achieve an even better and more personalized editing experience.
We understand the importance of collaboration, which is why we have opened up our plug-in ecosystem. The Capture One plug-in ecosystem allows photographers and creatives to share, edit, and collaborate on their images using powerful third-party extensions.
Furthermore, in partnership with Fujifilm, we now offer Fujifilm Film Simulations. These simulations, available in select Fujifilm cameras, allow you to use popular Fujifilm presets like Classic Chrome and Acros as a starting point for editing your photos. This collaboration brings the beloved Fujifilm look into Capture One, enhancing your editing capabilities.
Capture One 12 is the ultimate tool for professional photographers and creatives who demand the highest quality and control over their images. Upgrade to Capture One 12 and unlock a world of possibilities for your photography.

Luminosity Masks enable a new way of masking in Capture One. By selecting a range from luminosity (lightness), it's possible to add any adjustment to only that range. Apply shadow recovery to only the darkest shadows or add clarity to the lightest parts of the image. The possibilities are endless.
Linear Gradient
Rotate, feather and adjust a mask with a precision never before possible. Capture One 12 takes gradient masks to the next level, allowing for transformable, even asymmetric gradient masks. Using a brand-new Parametric Masking Engine, Capture One allows for adjustments in the size, shape, and symmetry of the masks with simple mouse clicks and key presses, truly redefining what is possible with a linear gradient.
Radial Gradient Masks
Adjust, rotate and move Radial Masks after creation for extreme control over desired effects. Using the same Parametric Masking Engine as the Linear Gradient mask tool, the new Radial Gradient Mask enables quick, flexible masks. Ase them for custom vignettes, creative effects or to focus attention.
Interface updates
Colors, iconography, and general design is optimized for long working sessions and to make discovery experimentation, and customization as easy as possible.
