I also like the way one can work on the different filters in the Effects set without leaving the filter one is adjusting. Since Elements does not have a ca tool at all, this is very helpful. One specific advantage I have noticed is that onOne raw seems to have an inherent ca correction tool as the ca's are much less apparent in my onOne raws. I do not consider it an all in one system as I find my other plug-ins (Nik, Topaz, DxO Filmpack 5) are still quite useful to me so I have to jump back into Elements to use them.
#On1 photo raw forum software#
In terms of comparison, there are pluses and minuses but the minuses tend to decrease as I play with the software more and more. Trying to even equalize results with a preset or two if I can. I am creating presets in onOne for different cameras and circumstances. I edit some pics both in onOne and in Elements and see what happens. I am really in a testing and comparing stage. I have been using the software part-time. So, some patience may be required if one has a need for a specific missing feature. The software did not even have a histogram in the first release. The developers were clear that the new software would be incomplete upon release and thy would be adding needed features going forward. I bought the new raw system at pre-release. I find it quicker to use a combination of these two programs using advantages in both systems. Here you can see a short demo These are some of the refinements BUT it is not as stable or complete as Adobe's programs (photoshop or lightroom) and the rendering time is a lot slower than promised. There is also a very refined edge detection whilst using masks with further possibility to adjust color threshold or transition ( but built on color information). You can also click on the cog wheel and choose to apply highlight/midtones/shadows separately. The one I use most is Dynamic Contrast which sharpens small/medium/large objects separately. From there I often go to ON Photo Raw Effects module where there are a number of good filters. I always start in (ADOBE) Bridge and make the big adjustments in ACR, then go to Photoshop for some small adjustments. Having started the thread I will tell how I find the On One Raw useful. But it's frustrating that they had so much press about the release and then it is half baked. I'm fairly confident they'll get these issues straightened out. It's unfortunate that On1 did this to themselves as I've been a fan so far. It does seem to be fairly straight forward but I haven't really used it yet in detail. Obviously there has to be a method of getting pictures "into" the software. Also they brag in the advertising that there is no need to "import" photos. I only played a bit with the RAW converter and it seems to be OK. The overlay does not show how the mask is feathered. Which is odd since it's been in every prior release.Īn example of something that's broken is the overlay that lets you see the mask. It is on the list of "upcoming features". For example, the very useful automatic masking brush is not there. The reason I say that is because some of the features that were very useful in prior releases aren't in RAW and other features are broken.
IMO this newest version wasn't ready for release.
My advice is to wait a while before upgrading.
#On1 photo raw forum update#
I thought I'd update this thread since I've now upgraded to On1 RAW and have had a few hours of use on it.
