Enhanced Denoise
Rescue high-ISO images without leaving Capture One. Enhanced Denoise delivers improved noise reduction for high-ISO images while preserving natural skin texture and fine detail. Processing runs in the background, so photographers can continue editing or culling while images are cleaned up.
Best for: Weddings, events, studio work, and low-light photography.
2nd Gen Wireless Tethering for Canon
Wireless tethering now delivers near-wired performance for Canon EOS R5 Mark II and Canon EOS R1. Images appear almost instantly in Capture One while full RAW files transfer in the background.
Best for: Studio and on-location photographers who need freedom of movement without compromising workflow speed.
Assisted Review (Beta)
Automatically identify closed eyes, missed focus, and exposure issues directly inside Capture One. Assisted Review helps speed up image selection while keeping photographers fully in control of the final review.
Best for: Portrait, event, and wedding photographers shooting at scale.
