I guess that was exactly what they do not want. And I would learn its strength and weaknesses before I made a move. 7 days Trial! They got to be kidding me, right? If it was 30 days, then I would at least edit a couple of thousands of raw files.

Out of curiosity, I went to their website to download the trial version of Lightroom.

Opening an account to run a software is also a big NO! NEIN! NET! Also, I am not going to let a 2nd year intern engineer at the ADOBE decide how my image color should look like. I do not want a software company to take control of my editing life. I did not try because C1 made the decision easier for me. 9.99 euro is not far from Spotify or Netflix subscription or about 4 coffees at a coffee shop.

I was not ready to spend 350.00 euros with a lot of ‘ifs and buts’ in my head. But I had to put a stone on my chest and had to say no to Capture ONE. In my tiny laptop screen, the C1 UI looks really busy. Capture One I believe, is made for bigger screens or multiple screens. I also, compared 10% of those photos (that is about 400 minimum) SIDE by SIDE with Fuji Raw files converted by RAW FILE CONVERTER and IN CAMERA JPEGS. I also made a Black and White and a Color version of each photographs. Well, I have edited approximately 4000 Fuji RAF files in Capture One Pro. That is ENOUGH, SOUROV! How do you know that! Sole reason why I bought a FUJIFILM camera in first place, is to enjoy their beautiful FILM SIMULATIONS. But Fuji JPEGS by the “RAW FILE CONVERTER EX powered by SILKYPIX” or IN-CAMERA JPEGS are not the same as CAPTURE ONE versions of FUJI JPEGS. It is true Capture One is excellent in color control and manipulation. Their ‘Session method’ needs lot of work. Professionally, I make another copy to my another SSD and work from there.

And if I have to edit on the go, I edit directly from the folder. FOLDER (Year) > SUBFOLDER (Month) > SUBFOLDER inside SUBFOLDER (DAYS or OCCASIONS). All the photos and videos I organise them manually. So I downloaded their 30 days trial version.

WHY NOT Capture ONE PRO?Īt first I was using the free Capture One Fuji express version. However, DXO as usual do not support the new big player on the market, FUJIFILM. They are heavily marketing the AI capabilities. Update: DXO Photolab 4 is released after I wrote this Review. Thankfully, later I found out that Silkypix has the same tools and abilities. I live in France and saying no to a French product (DXO) IS a big deal. Specially when we are seeing the rise of the FUJIFILM.

Why? In a professional world, you should be able to work with ANY raw files comes in Your way. But, I had to put logic, before my heart. Their HSL Color wheel is juicy! It is an extraordinary software. I almost convinced myself to buy it anyway because of Prime Denoise and Optical sharpness ability. I edited about 3500 raw files with DXO Photolab in 30 Days trial. Not only DXO does not support Fuji RAF, but also, DXO Lab has zero intention to support FUJI RAF in near future. Not only DXO does not support Fuji RAF, but also, DXO Lab has zero intention The Interface: It has so many potentials and Editing Options. I actually bought this software only to return it after editing about 200 fuji files. No, we didn’t know that we were about face a global shutdown. We returned home 3 days before the Airport closure. How the hell did i managed to accumulate this many photos do edit? Just before the virus attack, me and my wife did a crazy travel. It was a golden opportunity to try out the major softwares in the market.

Lets Break it down One At A Time:ĭuring 3 months of global lock-down, I have edited about 15000 raw files from FUJI XT20, Panasonic DMZ200 and my GoPro 7 Black from my Paris home. In Short: Silkypix is the best and most underrated Photo editing and Photo retouching Software that a photographer can ask for. So, why buy Silkypix Developer Studio Pro 10? The big names such as DXO Photolab Elite is currently at 199.00 euro, Capture One Pro is 349.00 euro, Adobe Photography Plan is at 9.99 euro ( includes Lightoom and Photoshop with 20GB storage). ( I highly recommend you to buy from your local distributor, to get the best customer service possible) 22000.00 Japanese yen if you are buying directly from the Japanese store.

At the time of this writing, Silkypix Developer Studio Pro 10 is retailing at 200.00 US dollar (if you are buying from their US-Canada distributor), and 180.00 euro if you are buying from the German, Swiss and Austrian distributor. This is an extremely important question because you are about to spend your hard working cash and you want to stick with it forever. LETS GET THE ELEPHANT OUT OF THE ROOM, Shall we?
