I have been using capture one for a few weeks now. I noticed some of my photos have a yellow tint when the raw file is processed by capture one. I ran it through lightroom and it took out the yellow cast. This is of course without adjusting the white balance. Has anyone else experienced this? Does capture one have an update for its profiles?

I have been very pleased with C1s output. I find the R-D1'scolors much better than my Canon 5D which always seem to have a brown cast.
 
Strange... Could be a wrong profile, really. Never had any such problem with Capture One. I'm using a R-D1s but I would bet profiles are exactly the same...

The color rendering I get from C1 is much like PhotoRaw (somtimes even better). Detail/noise ratio is much better on C1. I have some 1600 ISO, underexposed photos that don't cut it on PhotoRaw (or CS2, btw, unless using something like Neat Image) and hold on an A4 enlargement with C1 processing...
 
Here is the same file for comparison one from lightroom and the same raw file from capture one. The coloring is obviously different. The Capture One has a yellow cast. This is consistent for all the photos taken at F2 with the 4th gen Summicron

What camera?
What profile did you apply?
What version of C1?

Bit more info might make it easier to help.
If it is an R-D1(s), yes, there is a yellowoid cast before one applies the profile; after, it is gone.

The first one is from the r-d1 profile. The second is from Lightroom. The profile is the R-d1s profile. The camera is a R-d1. It did not correcct when i applied the profile in capture one. Obviously I could adjust the white balance, although not easily. In lightrom it was just imported and altered to not havve the white balance, by lightroom, not me.

Ok. So this is C1 3.76, right?
You are using a R-D1 firmware v2 (= R-D1s) and the R-D1s profile, right?
Do you import and apply the profile automatically or individually for each file?

Try this and let us know what happens: Select a raw image, click on the histogram profile, choose R-D1s as profile, then click on the image to apply profile.

Any change?

I would recommend making a picture with a WhiBal card and sampling that for the conversion in each program. Without correct White Balancing, it's very hard to know what is going on.

White Balance

White Balance

I tried again. Its still off in Capture One. Sean, I can fix it with the white balance tool, but right out of the camera it still has the yellowish cast in low light shots. is that the norm for the r-d1 and Capture one? It doesn't do it in lightroom. However, I love the interface in Capture One.

One issue might be that I have the upgraded software in the R-d1. Capture one still recognize my camera as an R-d1 but I use the r-d1s profile. It doesn't make a difference what profile I use. But, should Capture one see my camera as an r-d1s?
 
What I see when looking at my R-D1 ERF files is that the color temp is usually off toward the warmish yellowish side. When I look at them in C1 I have to correct the white balance, when I look at the ERF in Photoelements 5 the ERF file has the right color balance. Is it C1 or is Photoelements 5 fixing the white balance on the images I am looking at? I think it is the latter because when I open the same ERF in Bibble Pro it needs to have the color balance corrected just like in C1.
