How it will translate to iOS though - and how the company plans to monetize the platform - remains to be seen. In the first step of that process, Capture One on M1 already showed significant improvements in most performance metrics. All these things are part of our plans and we have to ask how what we do fits into that workflow.” As part of our roadmap this year, we looked at M1 and cloud capabilities, and of course, we’re excited about the iPad door opening up and what that potentially means for a photographer’s workflow. I think one of the more interesting things of iPadOS lately (or whatever its called) is they make more of the RAM actually accessible so that allows developers (Capture One, Adobe or even Apple itself) a lot of leeway in developing applications for the platform. Capture One for iPad will be available on June 28, and it will cost 4.99 per month.
We’re just incredibly excited about the opportunities. Capture One is working on Masks and Layers and full cloud syncing in addition to tethering. Get Capture One for iPad on the App Store and access the full power of a multi-device workflow. Within Capture One Pro, you can access Capture One Live and test out our powerful collaboration tools with 5 free Live Sessions.
“More importantly, we look at the future of how photographers in different categories can start to use multiple devices in their workflows.

If it’s something you’ve been wishing for and are curious about what it’s like, we found just a quick look. As some of you may remember, it was among the updates mentioned in Capture One’s roadmap from a few months ago. Photoshop and Lightroom use Adobe’s own Creative Cloud servers, while. These programs all interface with the desktop version using cloud synchronisation tools. These include Affinity Photo for iPad, Photoshop for iPad and Lightroom. “Firstly, the convergence of hardware means that we can take more and more of our code and reuse it across more and more devices and we are excited about the possibilities that opens up for us,” he said. Attention, Capture One photographers In case you haven’t heard yet, the software is finally now available on iPad. Capture One for iPad will join several high-end mobile photography tools already available for the Apple iPad. Speaking about the prospect, Orta said it was hugely exciting and noted that the convergence of hardware to Capture One as a software company meant that he and his team were able to take more of their code and see how it would manifest across multiple devices.
The quotes below were not published in the original interview, but at the time Orta actually expressly noted the company’s excitement about developing Capture One for iPad.
