A1 compressed lossless RAW support for 20?
I understand the A1 lossless compressed RAW was added for 21, but is there a plan to add the support to 20?

Permanently deleted userNo more than there's a plan to add support to version 3.
They're already up to version 22, so what possible reason would Capture One - or any Raw converter company - have for updating obsolete versions of the software?
Doesn't happen, isn't going to happen.

Can't they make camera RAM support modular so I can download a camera RAW update that works with any version of Capture One? I would think adding codec support is a pretty minor thing that wouldn't add much extra work beyond adding it for the current version.
I left Adobe for C1 back around version 10 because I don't like the subscription model. I'm not asking for new features, but being asked to buy the software again just for new camera support is kind of BS. It also sucks that now the discontinue and release a new version annually. Or maybe I'm just spoiled by companies like BlackMagic, Affinity/Serif and others that continue to improve and add features without making you buy the new version 6-12 months later. If I'm forced to buy the new version every year I may as well go back to Lightroom. That would be cheaper, includes Photoshop, and it wouldn't take an hour to fully open my Catalog.

Chad, I have to agree with you. I took the decision to update on a two-yearly basis for cost and new-feature reasons. So far that has worked and is a satisfactory trade-off for the superior performance of C1 vs LR.
It is certainly a serious downside that new cameras cannot be added to an existing version of C1. That is their business model that makes them money, but it is not customer-friendly and leaves a sour taste! Surely adding a new camera capability to an existing version of C1 for a nominal one-off cost would be possible.
As for the catalogue; I have had to split my LR catalogue into 6 smaller catalogues to enable proficient working; both inconvenient and intensely irritating.
C1 is far from perfect, but at least I've bought it, it is mine and not rented.

I was told that after I change the camera model in the EXIF from A1 to A9II, the file is once loadable. That tells me that the lossless compression RAW was already supported, and it was blocked only by the camera model chunk in the EXIF. I’m willing to pay for the new features, but purchasing a new version, with the stuff I don’t need, to load a file, that’s just pure greed on C1 as a company.

@Keith R,

Perpetual license does not expire, and it’s not obsolete, except C1 made it so.
