If you were a pure Fujifilm shooter, chances are that you got Capture One 22 for Fujifilm only as this version is substantially cheaper than the full Capture One 22 version (that supports all cameras).

However, Capture One announced that starting today they will terminate all brand-versions, meaning you’ll able to purchase only the all cameras version of Capture One 22. And indeed, you can’t find the branded version on their store anymore.

Capture One will still support the branded versions for 2 more years with updates.

Down below are the deals Capture One offers in the light of the latest changes, including a free upgrade if you:

currently have a subscription for Capture One for Sony / Nikon / Fujifilm.
own a perpetual license for Capture One 22 (the latest major release on Dec 9, 2021) for Sony / Nikon / Fujifilm

You can still buy Capture One for Fujifilm only at BHphoto, but after January 18 you won’t be eligible for the upgrade to the full version.

Full Capture One Statement

This year we’re making some exciting additions to our product line-up. Next month you’ll discover a powerful new way to collaborate with Capture One Live, and in the spring you can expect our very first iOS app with Capture One for iPad. To pave the way for these new products, we’re making some changes to our existing line-up.

From January 18th, we will no longer offer versions of Capture One that are limited to supporting only one camera brand. This affects the following products:

Capture One for Sony
Capture One for Fujifilm
Capture One for Nikon

Instead, we will simply offer Capture One Pro, which includes support for all camera brands.

All existing versions of Capture One will continue to work as it is. We will also continue to provide feature updates during the life of Capture One 22.

To see how this impacts you, choose an option below:
