Dear Capture One Team,
As a professional photographer who relies heavily on Speed Edit for fast and efficient image processing, I would like to request the addition of Rotate and Keystone (Vertical, Horizontal, and Skew) adjustments to the list of parameters available for Speed Edit.
Speed Edit has fundamentally changed the way I work — providing intuitive, tactile control over core image adjustments using keyboard modifiers and mouse movement or scroll. However, two essential corrections — horizon alignment (Rotate) and perspective correction (Keystone) — still require discrete hotkey presses or manual slider adjustments.
These operations are just as critical during batch editing and culling, especially in event, architecture, and reportage photography. The ability to adjust these parameters with Speed Edit would allow for:
Smoother integration into existing editing flows
Faster and more natural horizon correction
More precise visual alignment without interrupting the editing rhythm
I’ve mapped hotkeys like Alt+A / Alt+D for rotation and used macros on my Logitech MX Master 3S to mimic continuous input, but none of these solutions offer the fluidity and immediacy that Speed Edit provides.
Please consider adding Rotate and Keystone to the Speed Edit framework in future versions of Capture One. This addition would significantly enhance the workflow for many professionals.
Thank you for your continued dedication to making Capture One a tool we can rely on daily.
Best regards,
Gleb Loskutov
Professional Photographer
