What does your Capture One desk look like?

Boris Sheikman
I have a small mid-2011 iMac and I am thinking of one day getting a tablet, a scanner, and maybe even a beautiful 27" iMac Retina computer. My current desk is rather small and I would need to get a new desk to fit all this stuff. I'm curious to see how other Capture One users have set up their workspace. Would anyone here be willing to share their setup that works well for them and Capture One?

Thanks!

    Hi Boris,

    I have a 22" monitor sitting next to a MacBook Pro (lit closed).

    I have two monitors.

    I do like two monitors for many things at work... However, I have two on this machine because I replaced an older and not so nice monitor with a better one. I kept my old monitor

    So, the old monitor displays tools and thumbnails for my usual C1 workspace. If I am following along on a web tutorial, I can change the workspace to show tools and thumbnails and image-to-edit on the one nicer monitor and display a web browser on the second.

    If I had a notebook and external monitor, I might use the notebook display to sometimes show the tutorial or whatever.

    If you wonder how my workspace within C1 looks, I have made a couple custom tabs.. Not many. I have one or two floating tools I place at the top of the screen and dropdown when I need them. Hide them, otherwise.

    Thinking now.. with tablets so cheap, I imagine an option to my second monitor to display tutorial would be to just prop up my Nexus 7 next to the mouse and watch the tutorial on that.. :^)

    Hi Boris,

    I have one monitor (27'') but will get another one as soon as I can afford it 😉

    I use a Wacom tablet for editing, which I enjoy very much because it gives much more control (e.g. when drawing a mask) compared to a mouse. It was a hard time for me getting used to this tool, but now I'm pretty comfortable with it and use it most of the time - even when not editing images.


    Stefan.
