Capture One, I don't understand.

It's probably me, but why doesn't the preview window change with all variables? Even the simple white balance tuning thingy like in the tutorial doesn't create any change.
It's the free version from Sandisk, with license key.

Some extra info: Capture One LE 3.7.7 and Digilux 2.
Capture one LE 4 beta apparantly requires XP, I won't do that.

any clues?

the C1 Raw Converter does support the following camera models from Leica with respect to the release notes 3.7.7:

M8, DIGILUX 3, Digital Module R for R8 and R9 cameras

I don't see your's listed. C1 definitely reacts instantly on all WB adjustments you perform. Go to the WB tab, chose the color picker and click somewhere on the image.

i am not sure and
it may be a silly question, but you ARE accessing RAW files am i right?
C1P doesnt work on JPEG...

 

[laptoprob]

Yep, I am trying a RAW file. That would be silly indeed. It may be that the Digilux 2 isn't supported somehow. I will contact PhaseOne about that. Maybe an older version will support my camera.

thanks guys.

I took a strange delight in reading the initial question in this thread, because I have always found capture one's interface to be particularly impenetrable.
Some argue that it's a better RAW processor than Lightroom, but not if you can't figure out how to make it work!
Lightroom has always seemed a model of ease to me, and has gotten better and better with each new version.
Based on my limited grasp of C1, Lightroom has vastly more features, too.

C1 simply doesn't support the Digilux 2's RAW files (yet). Why these are so different from the Digi3 or M8 is beyond me.
I am now hoping for the other posters' copies of Rawshooter. And I am glad ACDsee 8 does support my files.
