Enhanced Denoise brings AI Noise Reduction for high-ISO images, built right into Capture One. The Impact slider lets you dial in how clean you want the result to be, from grainy to smooth. Skin tones stay natural, texture stays sharp, and processing runs in the background so you can keep working on other shots while it completes.
Assisted Review flags portraits with closed eyes, missed focus, or exposure issues, so you can jump straight to the shots worth working on. Tags show up right in the Browser, work as Smart Album criteria, and combine with star ratings and color tags. Built to assist your first pass, so you can deliver faster.
It's here. Wireless tethering that feels as fast as wired. Available exclusively for the Canon EOS R5 Mark II and EOS R1, 2nd Gen Wireless Tethering delivers an editable RAW preview in under one second, bringing professional-grade wireless tethering to the shoot.
When Preview Is Ready, a new tethered shooting mode, puts your color-graded, sharp image on screen the moment it's captured. Heavier adjustments like masking and retouching keep running in the background and apply when they're done. The shoot keeps moving instead of waiting between frames.
For Studio for Teams and Enterprise customers, 16.8 adds two ways to run Capture One at scale: direct connections to post-production services, and a centralized portal for IT admins and studio managers.
Send images straight from Capture One to your connected services in one Action. The first three connectors - Pixelz, Photoroom, and Gemini (Nano Banana) - put retouching, background work, and creative generation right at the end of your export. No email chains, no manual file routing. Studio managers configure connections centrally from the admin dashboard.
ReTether now covers Canon wireless and wired workflows. Plus, a new toolbar toggle, progress indicators in the Camera tool, and no more duplicates when shooting two memory cards with Canon.
Brand new support for Canon EOS R6 V, Phase One IXM-RS250, and Panasonic DC-L10.
New Contact Sheets create branded client proofs and catalogs with cover pages, custom headers and footers, ratings, and lightweight PDFs. Studio users can also organize Export Recipes into folders and sync them through Cloud Settings.
