From the article: “Who is capture one express for? There’s a case to be made that it’s for everyone You do not connect the dots between the brand-specific versions and Capture One Express, so that last line reads as the software is open to anyone willing to use a stripped down version of the Pro. If you’d added behind “no purchase required” another sentence about Fuji- and Sony users, then it would come across much clearer.
I wouldn’t normally respond but I’m not impressed – how much did you get paid? It’s not free. It’s a 30 day trial and camera specific. That’s the C1 Pro and it’s not what the article is referring to.
It’s not very clear on C1 website but the free express version for Fuji and I’m assuming Sony are inside the bundle that you download for the camera specific version. You just select the free version afer downloading package. I agree with the commenters that the title and much of the tenor of the article is misleading regarding Capture One Express. The implication is that it is available to all, but only when diving deep into the article and doing research online does the reader realize that the Express version is only for users of Sony and Fuji cameras.
This feels like false advertising by omission. Further research on the author shows that he works for a marketing firm representing Capture One, and that all of his articles for Fstoppers are about Capture One.
I am left with the impression that these articles are a marketing campaign dressed up as tutorials. This seems similar to the deception albeit on a much smaller scale to the recent controversy regarding The North Face using photos of their gear on Wikipedia entries.
Perhaps the author could be more direct upfront and disclose his relationship with Capture One at the beginning of his articles. Capture One is known throughout the community to be an excellent product, and having articles with tips and ideas is a great way to show it off. Direct and up front? I wonder what word salad might be used to convey his purpose to influence people to buy c1. Joel Jaffe, thanks for sharing your research. I agree with your thoughts about being more direct about the author’s relationship to Capture One.
The posts do openly say that they’re sponsored. You may not enjoy sponsored content, but it’s not deceptive. Thank you for pointing out that the post was Sponsored. I hadn’t realized that. Now I know what to look for. Yes, I’m serious not sarcastic. I’d missed the Sponsored tag when I started reading the article. Yup, I couldn’t agree more, Joel. I knew absolutely ZERO about Capture One, and after reading this article–I, feeling like an idiot later, clicked several times on the link, and again from Google, etc.
Only after reading the comments was I educated to the fact it’s only Fuji and Sony, unless you want to start a trial for the Pro version, which I’m sure is the point. What a let down. Welcome to Capture One World. This company would never produce a version for the Pentax cameras, since they were in competition with their much more expensive Phase One cameras.
I too seem wedded to Photoshop, since I got my original low cost version years ago when I studied it at our local JC. I am told by several of my teachers and mentors that the RAW developer in Capture One is , perhaps, the best..
But I have had great difficulty in mastering the steep learning curve in learning it. And the tutorials haven’t been, for me, very helpful. So, if my Pentax ever dies, or I inherit unlikely I would consider switching to the bigger Fuji. The trial version can be used for 30 days. It is possible that the application may require that you install the corresponding codecs to be able to recognize certain RAW formats.
