Speed Edit

Speed Edit is the feature in Capture One that lets you adjust settings with your keyboard, without first grabbing the slider with your mouse. You hold a key and drag or scroll, and the matching adjustment changes instantly. This edits a whole series much faster.

Hold the exposure key and scroll, for example, and the slider moves without you reaching for the panel. You can push the same adjustment quickly across several selected photos, ideal on a big shoot. Because you keep your eyes on the image rather than the sliders, you work more intuitively. Tip: memorise the few Speed Edit keys you use most, it saves a huge number of clicks.
