Here I used the same image, just applied the style over the color version of the RAW file. As I said, one could have different result depending on the film processing, so it is hard to say whether some color or tint is correct or not.Īnd here is what I achieved emulating some popular film names: Fuji FP-100c In general, I see a very close result with what I used to expect with film. I cannot say if the styles are absolutely exact emulating the film, but this is not so important. I have prepared a limited number of samples with some films I have worked in the film era. Here is the original photo I used for all the samples you will find below (click the photos to enlarge them): Since Capture One 8, you can add film grain to your taste. The second thing to notice is that these styles do NOT emulate the film grain, but only the colors, tints, contrast and saturation. Why are these styles offered? Well, I haven’t asked Alexander about this, but if you have experience with film, you maybe know that you can achieve very different results with different processing/developer of the same emulsion. The first thing you’ll probably notice is that you have two or three versions of some films, marked with v1, v2 or v3 at the end of the style name. You will find the names of many of the most used films in the set – Fuji, Kodak, Ilford, Polaroid, Agfa… Color styles The styles are working with no flaws after the upgrade. I installed the set with no problems on Capture One 7 Pro, now I am using C1 8.1. Even more – you can use a style as a base to create your own sub-versions of the style, save them and use them later. After you apply a custom style, you can continue to edit the photo and change all the settings. This is not just a plugin to batch-process photos with predefined settings. I do believe that every photo needs a special attention and editing, and batch-processing is a bad idea.Ĭapture One and the custom styles offer a different approach to photo editing. For some reason many people just ruin their photos, trying to follow the vogue. I don’t like the use of vintage plugins and Photoshop actions, as they are over-used these days. To be honest, I don’t like today’s “vintage look” vogue. I agreed and he sent me a copy of the styles set.

Alexander asked me to try their film styles and return him my opinion. He saw my blog and the articles about Capture One I wrote, and the custom Capture One styles I made and published here. Some time ago (well, it was half a year), I was contacted by Alexander Svet, pro-photographer and Phase One certified professional, about a project he is managing – Capture One Styles.
