Capture One: The Basics (Hoboken)

For more than a decade, Capture One Pro has been the preferred choice of professional and enthusiast photographers to provide the tools to realize the ultimate image quality in their photography. It's a powerful software that can help you to capture, organize, compare, select, process, and print your images.
This intensive, half-day workshop is jam-packed with tips, tricks, and shortcuts to bring your workflow to the next level. It can be a bit intimidating and confusing at first, but we want to help you understand the many functions and feel confident in the most efficient ways to work with your images. We will cover all of the most important tools to help you get better image quality than ever before, as well as the brand new features in version 11.
*This class takes place at our Hoboken location!
*It's strongly recommended that every registrant brings a laptop with Capture One Pro installed. If you don't have Pro 11 yet, our instructor will help you install and set up a free trial version at the beginning of class.
*Limited to 8 registrants.
