Affinity Photo is sold at a budget price point, but it has the tools and the features and the power to compete with Photoshop head-on. And Affinity Photo gives you exactly the same thing, but subscription-free, via a single extra-low payment. We complain that there's too much Photoshop doesn't do, but the fact is for many photographers this kind of old-school image-editor is exactly what they need. Capture one has, alas, discontinued its cheaper Nikon, Sony and Fujifilm editions, but has just launched a new Capture One Live service for real-time online collaboration with clients and co-workers. Capture One’s conversions look smoother and sharper than Lightroom's, and the company's co-operation with Fujifilm means it can produce just about the best Fujifilm processing you'll see and also recreate Fujifilm's Film Simulation modes. One of the key differences is its layers-based local adjustment system which makes it much easier to see and edit your changes to your work, and this now includes 'parametric' linear and radial gradient masks which you can edit later. Capture One works in a single window rather than in Lightroom-style ‘modules’ and has a highly customizable set of ‘tool tabs’. Capture One 2022 brings a new HDR merge feature – it works only on raw files but is extremely effective and natural looking – and a panorama merge feature too. It works both as tethered capture and editing tool for studio photographers with a 'sessions' based workflow and as a Lightroom-style image cataloguing, searching and non-destructive editing tool.
