Sharpening for the Web

Mike Dale
I'm trialing Capture One 9 and while I can make my images look great on the screen at full resolution I am having difficulty when Exporting them at a reduced size. The images when reduced look very soft.

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong please.

    In your process recipe, "Adjustments" tab, is the "Disable sharpening" box checked or not?

    Err…..where do I find the "Adjustments" tab?

    OK. Found it. No, Disable Sharpening is not checked.

    I'm exporting as a Variant JPEG, sRGB, 100% Quality Scale Long Edge at 1500px.

    In what app do you then open your exported JPEGs? Do they appear soft in any app?

    Could you show us the difference, for instance a snapshot of the RAW open in Capture One vs. the exported JPEG?

    If you export in TIFF, are the pictures soft too?

    I think you've hit the nail for me. I was opening in Preview. If I open in Photoshop and zoom to 100% they look goo. If I zoom out a couple of time in Preview it's looks good there too.

    Thanks for the help.

    I'll keep learning Capture One as it looks like a good tool.
