Not impressed so far (any advantages?)

thomas462
I've been using Capture Once since the days of my H20, now using a P45+ on a Contax 645 (Long live COntax!!!) and I have to say as of this moment in time I plan on continuing to use 3.7.9 for capture and then either C1 or LR for processing. I don't see 4 having a future anytime soon with me.

It comes down to

ease of use
simplicity (ease of use)

Pretty much everything I need to do can be done in 3.7.9. If I need to do more HDR type work, I can just process my 2 exposures and layer in PS. Done. The interface of 4 just leaves me feeling a little cold. It crashes on me constantly (Intel Macbook Pro) -and as of right now I don't have the time to re-learn every little aspect of the software that is used daily by me.

Can someone please enlighten me as to the advantages of switching to version 4? I'm not against it, I just don't see the advantage (so far) of using this over 3.7.9 with LR.

    Maybe lens correction. For me it works perfect with the Contax lenses.
    I think I am going to use V3 and V4 at the same time. V3 for shooting, for selecting (incl. deleting) and for output if there are just little adjustements.
    V4 for the files I need lens correction and/or enhanced color adjustments.
