I always liked Lightroom’s Catalog System and interface better than Capture One, so I am glad to be able to use it again without feeling like I am missing out. Lightroom’s improved color profiles and color controls, combined with my more advanced perspective on color manipulation (thanks to Capture One) are now plenty good enough for me that I don’t need Capture One anymore. It only took a few days and my mind was made up Capture One still provides an overall better post-processing experience in terms of manipulating colors and such, but Lightroom has improved in ways that are intangible to me. It was all enough that I reinstalled Lightroom in the last week to see if I needed to come back to the program that really helped me develop as a photographer. But after I got the hang of it, and with the help of some excellent ‘styles’ from RNI, I was able to get into a nice rhythm that I was looking forward to using into the foreseeable future.īut Adobe has done a lot of work on Lightroom in the last year, and they have made a ton of improvements to performance and features over the last 6 months, including improved color controls, picture profiles, and finally, the ability to sync presets between the Desktop and the mobile applications.

The changeover was tough at first I had grown to know Lightroom like the back of my hand, so utilizing Capture One’s different layout took time. I completely removed Lightroom from my system and have been utilizing Capture One ever since. I was intrigued by Capture One and had seen the sheer power that it provided.

Unsurprisingly, this also is when we started to really see a rise in photographers denouncing Lightroom in favor of PhaseOne’s Capture One Pro a longtime favorite of professional retouchers that hadn’t really caught on with the masses. If you have been reading the internet for the last year or two you would be hard-pressed not to notice the uptick in photographers unhappy with Adobe Lightroom and it’s nearly constant performance issues. But after 6+ months I am coming back to Lightroom.

Around the beginning of this year, I decided to switch to Capture One, and I loved it.
