Capture One has been cutting staff over the last two years. The CEO is quoted by saying stuff around bridge building taking a long time. Phocus continues to get better so I'm just going to stick with that.
Dear Capture One. I use a Phase One IQ4 150 as my primary camera. My secondary is Hasselblad X2D. I'm getting increasingly happy with my X2D. Support it or I may sell my Phase One and be done with my Capture One subscription. I'm getting closer by the day. This lack of support is childish. Not to mention economically stupid on your part.
I added a X2D to my cameras and I am really disappointed that I have you switch raw converter. Capture One is giving me great results with my Sony cameras, I hate moving back to Lightroom which is the only one working for all brands. Phocus gives great color results but for anything else it is just outdated.
I simply don’t understand this outdated rivalry between two Scandinavian companies. I love my Hasselblad and would never leave Capture One Pro but you forced me to shop around for other options. I still don’t like the rendering o Lightroom, Phocus is horrendous to use but I finally found now a software that I actually like quite a bit: DXO Photolab.
Because I love Capture One so much, -I would love to see the Hasselblad X2D supported. Using Capture One is not going to make me buy a Phase One camera but there are tons of Hasselblad users who love Capture One and are crying for your help. I'm crying right now, ...again! I bet you would sell lots of Licenses of Capture One Pro to lots of Hasselblad users.
You are already preferred by those of us that left Adobe Photoshop. Be smart and open Capture One to Hasselblad users. You'll be flush with cash.
The non-willingness of Capture One to integrate the best medium format camera (X2D) is nothing but a shame. How can a company pretend to offer the best raw conversion software and at the same time ignore the needs of their pro customers? And this in an overall shrinking market? At some point another software (DXO, Topaz, etc.) competitor will do the job (better) before Cature One finally felt obliged to do it and not only the pro photographers will turn their backs on Capture One but also the majority of the amateurs following the paths of their professional colleagues. It can happen very quickly … What is most probably the main reason, why Capture One does still block it, is that they had to promise Fuji who probably paid a lot of money for their GF-integration, that a Hasselblad integration into Capture One will never happen … Unfortunately this alone does not help that Hasselblads X2D files are still superior to the Fuji ones.
Hasselblad Color Science is unmatched by any camera in this segment. I have other brands and it is amazing to have them integratde in Caoture One (like Leica) BUT Capture One cant be a pro solution without integarting Hasselblad. regardless of ploitics we are photographers and paying cutomers seeking to creatr things and it is painful after years and years of request this cant happen. Adobe has it and is not that complicated as Capture One said that cant happen!!! This is not ridiculous for all of us! Plase recondider asap
What happened to customer first thinking? if you want to be the most complete platform, you need to include all relevant cameras. By now, it is pretty clear that Hasselblad X-Series fit that category. It would be wise to overcome your intenal gaze, get over yourselves and do right by your customers.
really don't understand why a pro photo editing company wouldn't support one of the most pro cameras. Pretty childish if it's just some historical quibble.
Here’s the latest statement from Rafael Orta, CEO of Capture One:
We have noticed the requests for supporting Hasselblad cameras from our community, and we have responded to them. Unfortunately it’s not the answer y’all likely want to hear.
Providing support for a camera, especially a high-end Hasselblad, is not simple.
Ideally we’re able to work very closely with manufacturers to carefully calibrate colors and lenses, to make sure their files consistently and predictably look beautiful in Capture One, across many different lighting conditions and photography scenarios.
It’s a matter of public record that the relationship between Phase One and Hasselblad became antagonistic over time, and as I’m sure y’all know from life experience, it takes a second to blow up a bridge and a very long time to rebuild it.
So, I’m not going to say never, but I can’t commit to a timeline either. In the interest of openness and transparency, we’ve taken the public stance of saying that it’s “Not currently planned”, and we will of course update that information if and when circumstances allow.
We appreciate the engagement and ideas from our community and we remain committed to offering you innovative and powerful photography software at a time of intense change in the industry.
+1 for X2D support for tethered capture and raw. I've read through the previous thread on this, unless Hasselblad and C1 resolve this I'll have to back to using Lightroom for my X2D needs. It's kinda bizarre that C1 supports tethered shooting for the Leica Q3 (decidedly NOT a studio camera) but can't get over the hump to support the X2D? Sigh.
Please support the X2D, been using it next to my Phase One and Leica.. I move to Capture one from lightroom etc and not having Hasseblad is such a pain. Please!!!!!

Honestly, is this really what you want?

Why is C1 keeps ignoring one of the best image quality camera in the market??

Please support the X2D, been using it next to my Phase One XF and would love to have C1 being able to edit all my pictures. Thank you!
Hasselblad x2d
+1 for for Hasselblad X2D / VFC 100c support in C1. Thank you.
Like the introduction of a 100mp digital back for 8KUSD? What’s that 30k cheaper than PhaseOne? 🤣
