I enjoyed the course. It was informative and it will enable me to enjoy my photo editing in Capture One. I do think you should have mentioned the difference between 8 and 16 bit and the potential for colour banding in 8 bit. Thank you!

Un tuto extrêmement rapide pour débutants et ceux qui n'ont pas encore exploré les possibilités de Capture One...J'attendais d'aller plus loin en ce qui me concerne mais l'auteur n'a que survolé la plupart des outils...Il reste tant à dire sur ce logiciel, que ce soit au niveau du travail de la couleur que celui des masques quels qu'ils soient ...Je reste totalement sur ma faim..JFP
