I would absolutely recommend watching a tutorial or two on Capture One. It's a fantastic program but there are some important differences between it and Lightroom. I don't shoot Fuji, so there may be even more differences there. As you can tell, the exposure and HDR sliders in C1 behave a little differently, and C1 has the brightness slider, which is really nice to have. I miss it a great deal when using LR. The C1 color editing features are better, and you also have layers in C1 and a Levels adjustment, among other things. An intro tutorial would be a good idea. I've finally made the switch completely to C1.

I been testing both and still deciding which one to use.

LRC has more support and tutorials from the community and C1 provide better results and performance but at higher cost.

The only reason to use C1 is because of its performance editing 200MB files from my GFX100SII, LRC performance is much worst.

Firstly, cool that you attempted the comparison! Secondly, as far as I'm aware, Capture One mostly chimes better with the XTrans Sensor files with its native settings and sharpening, and that's the reason why most fuji enjoyers switch to it. GFX got a different sensor, so the test with your X-T5 might have been more interesting

Run DeNoise on the RAW file in LR first then do a comparison. C1 handles Fuji raw correctly.

Hello! Which one would you learn from scratch if you were starting today? Lightroom or Capture one? Tks for sharing!

You cannot make Lightroom photos look exactly like capture one capture one just got that special sauce to it with the Fuji film 😂😂

Unexpected because capture one is better with Fujifilm files..
