Capture One price increase coming next week (you can still purchase at the old prices)


Capture One will increase their prices on January 11, 2021 (you can still make a purchase and lock in the old prices):

“At Capture One, we’re dedicated to shaping the future of photography. After reviewing our products and plans for future innovation, we’ll soon be updating the price of select products. For example, we’ll be updating the price of Capture One for Fujifilm, Capture One (for Sony) and Capture One for Nikon to bring them in line with Capture One Pro. This is to better reflect that these products equally offer the same set of professional tools and features. We’ll also increase activations to 2 per license for these products. The price updates take effect on January 11, 2021. Existing subscription plans will not be affected by these changes. New customers – and customers seeking to upgrade their license – can still purchase their preferred product or upgrade at the 2020 price before January 11.


The price increase will also impact the Capture One version for Nikon:

  • C1 for Nikon perpetual version: from $129 to $149
  • C1 for Nikon monthly subscription: from $9,99 to $19

Here are the new prices that will kick in on January 11th:

Meike 50mm f/1.2 manual focus lens for Z-mount review



Meike 50mm f/1.2 Z-mount manual focus lens review by Bill Hall (see previous guest posts):

Now that the Nikon Z-Mount system has been out for a couple of years, more and more third-party lens choices have become available. Meike, known for its budget-conscious quality products, is now producing this fast 50mm lens for the Z-Mount. It’s $360 on Amazon.

First impressions: There’s a nice heft to this lens, though it’s by no means heavy. The all-metal construction promises a long life and durability. The aperture and focus dials operate very smoothly, but also stay in place when you move your hand away. The mount is all metal also, and mounts to the camera securely with no movement or looseness. Its red stripe is a nice accent, and it looks very professional on my Z6, not revealing its budget price.
