1 rating

Processing Fuji Raw files in Capture One 12 (or later) is an eBook guide written to provide Fuji shooters with enough knowledge to get the best results when working with Fuji RAW files in Capture One. 


While processing Fuji RAW files in Capture One no longer requires a significantly different workflow to using RAW files from other cameras, there are still some idiosyncrasies with Fuji files and some things that require specific techniques. This guide outlines those, and also some of the other areas that will help when working with Fuji RAW files.

Who is this guide for:

This eBook is not designed as a complete manual replacement and it does not cover every single tool and function of Capture One. This guide assumes a basic knowledge of Capture One. You should know how to open the application and navigate around the interface. You don’t have to be an expert but you should know the absolute basics. It also only briefly talks about working with JPEGs in the software, and is primarily aimed at working with RAW files.

This is mostly for the PRO version, but the express version can use some of the techniques described within. In the guide techniques that only work in the Pro version is marked with an icon to differentiate them. Please read the table of contents below to get an idea of what is in this guide.

Who is this guide not suited for:

If you’re an absolute beginner in Capture One and have only briefly used the software this is not for you. If you are looking for a complete manual replacement for the software this will not be suitable for you.

NOTE: This guide does contain some previously published material, and some material adapted from blog posts.
