Id appreciate any experience with this.
It may be more an issue with how CO handles .RAW compared with .tif files, but will post here.
Its not about whether this application can make a true RAW file.
I have some photos I only captured as jpegs and I want the best ability to edit with few artifacts/best colour depth etc taken through to eg PS and topaz sharpening/clarity etc as I do with some raw captures.
The product seems to work well, considering what it starts with.
If I output as .tif (or .tiff) when imported in CO I cant do chromatic aberration correction. If I output as .dng, I can.
While the preview of these output formats looks the same in JPEG to Raw, once in Capture One they are very different.
This persists even if I use the file profile of generic tiff, or Adobe Raw (amongst others) for the .dng, using linear or auto profiles etc. The screen shot shows this for a 50% view of comparative files ( the two .dng represent with the original camera profile linear, and the one is Adobe DNG. The .jpeg is the original, the .tif is tiff processed with the camera profile).
I would happily output as .tif except keen to be able to correct CA for some photos.
