Capture One accused of dumbing down the app for consumers by furious pro users
Recently, Capture One released their latest v14.3 update. It came with some great new updates like the Magic Brush, but their attempt to “streamline” the user interface experience seems to have made quite a lot of their professional users pretty upset. At least, that’s what the feedback on social media suggests.
As PetaPixel reports, the Output Tab has been removed along with specific associated features – breaking many workflows for photographers and editors. Some feel this is Capture One essentially trying to dumb down the interface for the more casual consumer and not their core professional user base that’s driven much of their growth since the product was first launched.

Photoshop wizard fixes photos in the most literal way possible
If the name James (Jamie) Fridman rings a bell, that’s because his work has probably made you laugh out loud at least once. Jamie is not only a Photoshop wizard but also a man with a fantastic sense of humor. And when you bring those two together, you get hilarious Photoshop creations you’d probably never think of.
Jamie accepts submissions from his followers with requests to edit their photos. Like many other retouchers, right? The catch is that Jamie takes his clients’ requests very literally, so the work he sends back is quirky, unexpected, and downright hilarious.

This is the final part of a five-part series on the free and open-source Lightroom alternative, Darktable by photographer Chris Parker. Chris didn’t write a post to accompany the fifth video in the series, but we didn’t want to leave the series of posts unfinished, so here we are.
