White balance is also a crucial part of the three-step workflow. The highlight and shadow slides can make more sweeping adjustments to their respective tones in an image, while the white and black sliders are useful in fine-tuning only the very brightest and darkest parts of the photo. These aren’t part of the three-click workflow, but it’s nice to have them easily accessible in case you run into a dynamic range issue that you can’t fix with the tone profiles in your style pack. If you’re using an older version Capture One, you’ll only see two sliders: highlight and shadow. The high dynamic range tool in Capture One 20 consists of four sliders: highlight, shadow, white, and black. Often, after applying a Mastin Labs style, you’ll need to bump your exposure up a little. Exposure adjustments are an essential part of the recommended workflow for Mastin Labs products. For a three-step workflow, you’ll only need to use the exposure slider. The exposure tool contains sliders for exposure, contrast, brightness, and saturation. That’s because we wanted to give our styles full compatibility with layers, and to do that, the base characteristic curve is no longer “baked in” to the styles.įor photographers who are using their camera’s default camera profile, which is most of you, you can forget this tool is there.
Though, as updates roll out for other style packs, the information in this section will apply to those as well. If you set your camera to an internal profile other than its default (Landscape, Portrait, etc.), you’ll need to change the curve in this tool to “Film Standard.”Ĭurrently, changes to this tool will only be necessary if you’re using a non-default camera profile along with our Portra Original style pack. The base characteristics tool is one that most users won’t need to touch, but we’ve included it to make life easier for the small percentage of people who will have a specific need. Whether your screen’s brightness is high or low, whether you calibrate or not, the histogram will show you exactly what’s there even if your eye may deceive you. The histogram is an invaluable tool to visualize the data in your photos. Capture One’s histogram has a gray shadowed area that represents the luminosity values from pure black to pure white and line graph overlays for red, green, and blue values. The histogram tool displays a graph that represents the tones and values of your image, as well as your ISO, shutter speed, and aperture settings.
