QUESTION
Will Capture One run on my M1/M2 Mac?
ANSWER
All releases from Capture One 21 (14.2.0) onwards are natively supported on Apple Silicon (M1) Macs. Additionally, Hardware Acceleration on Apple Silicon (M1/M2) machines is achieved using Metal - this is now also the case on Intel based Macs, if you are using Capture One 22 (15.3.0) or newer.
Previous versions of Capture One that have not been designed with silicon based Macs in mind, will still run on Mac computers using the Rosetta 2 emulation platform. This is run by default and there's no need to change any preferences in order for Capture One to run.
The only known limitation when using Rosetta, is when it comes to tethering with Canon cameras. Download and install the latest firmware here to try remedying this issue.
