Capture One 10 & Hasselblad DNG: Controversy and Solution

[BobShaw]

How many hours has Phase One invested in "Hasselbla" support?

I think that is a very valid point.
All camera raw files contain proprietary information that needs to be worked out. Adobe will want to do that eventually and Phase probably not.
For X1D files there will be a while before good results can be expected. I just did a comparison using H3DII files ( released 2008) converted to DNG and the results were much better than the X1D files. A little darker but nothing major. They should work well in either ACR or DNG process.

ACR and DNG are both Adobe so you would expect similar results, but you would not expect them to be as good as the manufacturers converter in both results and ease of process, and they aren't.

Apparently, you have not seen the Silkypix software that Pentax cameras ship with.. 
Taught me to not even bother with Canon's software either.

Hi,

Have you tested the 'embedded profile' in Lightroom? Or these ones? http://www.getdpi.com/forum/medium-format-systems-and-digital-backs/56517-new-custom-dng-profile-pentax-645z.html

I also enclose one of my profiles built by Adobe DNG Profile Editor.

Best regards
Erik

Yes, there is still the Brand: Hasselblad 

The brand name Hasseblad is present in 4 tags and the utility provided by Sandy seems to correct only two tags:
Make                                     : Hasselblad
Camera Model Name               : Hasselbla
Unique Camera Model             : Hasselbla
Localized Camera Model          : Hasselblad X1D-50

I was referring to Hasselblad.
Capture One supports most non MF cameras.

Unfortunately it doesn't work wit the Hasselblad X1D DNG files 
but Exif editor works !

Based on feedback, I've updated DNG Cleaner to be able to set the Make and Model fields separately. So you can now set e.g., "Fujifilm" and "GFX 50S" independently. That should resolve the problems that some users have been having.

The revised version should be on the App Store in 24-48 hours.

I love the concept of this piece of software.  Any plans for a Windows version?

Maybe - depends on whether there's enough interest.

Must be very wise. As a Fuji-X-User I have to change to LR in a few weeks when my GFX arrives.

So sad, but as a victim of a wise decision I feel much better. (sarkasm off)

Have you tried Iridient? Still supposed to be the best converter for X-trans. I love C1 and detest LR!

[Paul2660]

If you like LR, but hate the Adobe raw conversion for X-trans, use the Iridient transformer x.  Converts the files with Iridients democasic and sharpening to dng which you can then open in LR and still take advantage of being a raw file.

Now supports the GFX files also. 

However as the GFX is not x-trans I would surprised if LR/ACR doesn't have a good solution for it when it's released.  My main wish for C1 support was not raw conversion but tethered support as I feel that C1 does the best here.

If they really don't want us other MF camera users to use their product then I'm just going to use something else.
It's not worth the bother and Lightroom generally does the trick for me.
