I can't remember the details, but it required more of a hunt from within C1 to find the DNG, or/and manually moving the DNG into a folder C1 would recognise.Īs I was having problems with PureRaw creating sharpening haloes, I gave up on it and am now trialling PhotoLab 5, which works fine and being able to control the sharpness levels seems to be solving the halo problems. With PureRaw, (though I think this may have changed in 2.1) the options for where the DNG is saved is more limited. When using C1 sessions, the DNG is immediately available to C1, but with a catalogue, you may need to sync the folder where the raw is stored before the catalogue will recognise a new file is available. I export as a DNG, which is then available beside the original raw for further editing in C1. After doing whatever you want to do with it in PL, you need to choose export to disk and from the options make sure you export to 'The original image folder'. Once added C1 should remember them.įor PhotoLab, after you select it with the right click, PL should open with the selected file from C1. The first time you right click neither Photolab nor Pure Raw will appear in your choice of external programs and you will need to add them with the 'other' option. It doesn't make much of a difference, with one exception, which I explain later.Ĭ1 offers two ways of round tripping to external programs, both accessed by right clicking on the image you want to round trip.īecause both Pure raw and PhotoLab need a raw file to work with, you need to use 'Open With' after right clicking on thefile you want to send to DXO.

I only use Sessions with C1 and not catalogues. Note I am on a Mac, and I am basing this on the trial versions of Pure Raw 2 and Photolab 5. I understand that DXO also 'breaks' occasionally. Topaz, as an example, regularly break these protocols at interim releases, which 'breaks' the Capture One round tripping until Topaz fixes it at the next release. However, this relies on the external program adhering to standard Operating System protocols for managing and re-naming files. Click to expand.Capture One has very few 'Plugins' and there is no plugin for Pure raw or Photolab.īut it does offer a very capable way of round tripping to external programs, as long as they work as stand-alone programs: as PhotoLab and Pure Raw do.
