I can't see a need to have multiple apps as alternatives to that - so no need for Pixelmator, etc. Affinity rather than Photoshop on cost grounds, mainly. Mostly for the inpainting brush to get rid of objects in a picture that would be difficult to do in Capture One (which is after all not a pixel editor). I (occasionally) use Affinity Photo to do a few things that I can't do in Capture One like more extensive cloning and retouching, stitching panoramas, HDR, that kind of thing. It's not that hard just to use the Open with command in Capture One.* If you only occasionally send a raw image to DxO for raw processing, you really don't need a plugin to do so. I'd comment on a few of these as follows. So, what cannot be done in Capture One? Which plugins or external programs are handy to use with Capture One? Topaz Studio - not using, but appears to have interesting tools ON1 Photo Raw - cannot remember why I used this Nik Collection - I use Silver Efex Pro 2 for black and white conversion

Mylio - considering using this to have access to all my photos online Luminar - not using it but they keep promising a DAM to beat all DAMs and they wish that I buy before the DAM is released As far as I can tell, only Lightroom and Capture One can import Aperture libraries.ĭxOÂ OpticsPro - I occasionally use Aperture plugin called Catapult to send raw image to DxOÂ OpticsPr for better raw processingĭxO ViewPoint 3 - used to correct perspective Since I'm migrating, I've looked at many different programs, and keep getting marketing emails badgering me to pay for updates for software that I used with Aperture. I am curious as to what other software people use with Capture One Pro. I am about to jump in and migrate from Aperture to Capture One.
