Picture Instruments Preset Converter Pro 1.1.0 MacOS

It is a small and helpful tool to convert Lightroom presets into Capture One Styles. Because Capture One and Adobe Lightroom are fundamentally different RAW converters with distinct features and algorithms, we'd like to utilize this manual to teach how to use the software and demonstrate its limitations.

Preset Converter is a small and useful tool to convert Lightroom presets (.xmp or lrtemplate) into Capture One Styles (.costyle). Since Adobe Lightroom and Capture One are fundamentally different RAW converters with different features and algorithms, we would like to use this manual not only to explain the operation of the software but also illustrate the limits of conversion.Preset Converter only converts from Lightroom into Capture One and not the other way round. For many features in Capture One we have not found a visual equivalent in Lightroom. Therefore the decision to only work in one direction is purely technical. Advantages:

Because Adobe Lightroom and Capture One are fundamentally different RAW converters, there are some technical hurdles in the conversion process. Some Lightroom functions cannot be reproduced 1:1 in Capture One, because there is not always an equivalent function in Capture One. In these cases, the values are mapped to another available function according to optical standards, which leads to comparable results in most cases. However, since every image is also exposed differently, and a preset is usually only the starting point for further image processing, small differences are usually irrelevant. If the image result differs too much due to the conversion, you can usually adjust it quickly by hand. The biggest source of error is already eliminated if all white balance settings are banished from the preset. In any case, this is easier and faster than manually recreating the entire preset yourself, and you have more time to adapt the look optimally to your image material.

Preset Converter is a handy little tool to convert Lightroom presets (.xmp or lrtemplate) in Capture One Styles (.costyle). As Adobe Lightroom and Capture One are fundamentally different RAW converters with different functions and algorithms, we would like to use this manual not only to explain the operation of the software, but also to illustrate the limits of conversion.

The preset converter only converts from Lightroom to Capture One and not the reverse. For many functions in Capture One, we have not found a visual equivalent in Lightroom. Therefore, the decision to work only in one direction is purely technical. 041b061a72
