Capture One Releases Capture One 22 Update:<\/strong><\/p>\n

New Capabilities, Improved Speed, and Enhanced Performance With Apple Silicon <\/strong><\/p>\n

COPENHAGEN, April 5, 2022<\/strong>: Capture One releases a dynamic and powerful update (15.2.0) to Capture One 22 that sees an entirely re-envisioned keystone tool, a slew of feature updates with expanded capabilities, and Apple silicon performance advancement that brings substantial speed improvements across a host of the most demanding and frequently used functions. This update also brings new camera and lens support for a number of the most recent hardware releases.<\/p>\n

Reflecting Capture One\u2019s ongoing commitment to the photographic community to continually evolve with feedback, there are a host of user experience improvements, and this release also marks a streamlining of the Capture One product line as subscription users of Brand licenses will have their product automatically changed to Pro, expanding functionality by enabling utility for all supported camera models and file types.<\/p>\n

What’s New In Capture One 22 (15.2.0)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Keystone Tool Redesign<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Keystone Tool has been redesigned with new functionality and a new user interface. The Tool is now split into two tabs, Guides <\/strong>and Sliders<\/strong>, <\/strong>making it easy to automatically apply corrections and as well as manually tweak the result afterwards, and Auto Keystone has been added for all camera models, allowing a swift and precise perspective correction of most images.<\/p>\n\t\t

Auto Keystone<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let Capture One detect and correct the perspective automatically. By pressing the \u2018Auto\u2019 button in the Keystone Tool, lines in the image(s) are automatically detected, evaluated, and used for the correction. The result is a swift automatic correction with high precision.<\/p>\n

By default, Auto Keystone will correct Vertical Keystone. This can be changed by simply selecting one of the other two guide modes to activate the cursor tool. The icon within the \u2018Auto\u2019 button will change accordingly and pressing it will instantly apply the desired correction. Auto Keystone works on batches of images.<\/p>\n

Auto Keystone can also be triggered from the regular Auto Adjust functionality in the main toolbar. To do this, tick Keystone in the drop-down menu of Auto Adjust. Note that only Vertical Keystone is available from Auto Adjust, and if Capture One is unable to detect suitable lines in the image, pressing \u2018Auto\u2019 will have no effect.<\/p>\n

Tool Design<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Keystone Guides have been redesigned to easily place them with greater precision. Additionally, the precision of the guides can be fine-tuned using the keyboard arrows when a guide is selected. The position of the guides can be fine-tuned using the keyboard arrows, and the new adjustment \u2018Skew\u2019 has been introduced to accommodate a wider range of perspective corrections.<\/p>\n

New underlying model <\/strong><\/p>\n

To allow the Keystone Tool to provide perfectly vertical and horizontal lines when correcting perspective using the Guides, the new adjustment type Skew has been introduced. Additionally, the default Amount is changed from 80 to 100. Decreasing this after using the Guides is useful in some scenarios where creating a more natural perspective is desired as opposed to perfectly vertical or horizontal lines.<\/p>\n
