You can start to raise this again if you find it’s too low and there's too much noise. You may get a little grain in you out of focus areas or solid colours, but you will also have more details in areas of fine textures. For ISO 200 - 800 I suggest turning this off altogether. This, again, is too high for typical low to normal ISO images. Secondly, is the Luminance noise reduction slider in the noise reduction section. Just set it to zero for the most part, and raise it if it’s too low.įor the most part the other sliders here are fine for most normal images, and I’m not going to go into the details of what they do right now, although the amount slider should be pretty obvious! Again it's subtle, and if this is confusing don’t worry about it, it’s not something you really need to deal with normally. What I mean by this is that unlike a “falloff” there is no gradation between sharp and not sharp, as defined by the threshold. One of the other issues with the threshold is that it is a hard cut-off as far as I know. If you find it’s sharpening the background noise too much you can raise it again to the point where you feel it is better. ![]() The difference can be subtle, but it adds a little crispness to the texture of your image. for the most part, the defaults are ok, however, in my opinion, the threshold is too high, and for low iso images (200-1600) you don’t really need this turned up at all, so I set this to zero. There are two things that you need to focus on, and both can be found in the detail panel (the little magnifying glass). If you’re using the full “Pro” version of Capture One, you can use this trick to proof your images while in the software. If you’re adjusting sharpening zoomed out, you may find that you’re over-sharpening to compensate and you images will be over-processed when exporting. The reason for this is that Capture One doesn’t render everything fully at lower zoom levels, and it also agressively anti-aliases the image. The first and most important thing to do is zoom to 1:1 when adjusting sharpening in Capture One. Basically, in my opinion, the defaults are a little heavy handed with the processing and I suggest making some changes. The above video walks you through the process, but for those that prefer to read what to do, here is the summary. ![]()
