Capture One 8.X is great but some key feature requests
Hi folks at the Capture One Team,
Just downloaded the upgrade to Capture One 8 the other day and spent the evening working with it. Overall, the speed, responsiveness and the new features are great. I'm impressed with the quality of image upon inport.
However there are three key feature requests I have that I think would really improve the Capture One 8 user experience.
1) Please add a "Select by Rating" and "Select by Color" ratings commands to the default menu structure under the Edit menu, along with the other Select functions. Right now, you have to open another (Advanced Selection) menu to get to these commands, and then check the boxes you've created; it's a hassle and too modal.
2) Please, please, please add support for 3rd party plug-ins, e.g. NIK and Topaz Fusion Effects. For example, everyone I know uses NIK Silver Efex to do black and white conversions, it's just a much more fluid and effective way to do black and white conversions than using the color channel sliders.
3) Vibrance tool. Clarity and Structure are great, but adding Vibrance would be a big plus.
Thanks for listening and hopefully implementing these requests. I enjoy using Capture One and love the quality of the results, and rev 8 looks to be better than ever, but from a "kaizen" perspective, there is always room for improvement.

You're not getting it.
*Sigh*
From the example you've given, it looks like the only thing you can't do is AutoSync the file. Sure it's not as fluid as you would like, but its all still there...
That's just the problem. It's not as fluid as we would like...that IS the problem. It's using these things in a maximally fluid manner that makes all the difference in using the application.0
