Originally posted by fillerupmac Architorture, can you expand on this a little? Do you use a separate monitor to display
the photograph? What is your setup?
i connect the k10d to the computer with the supplied usb cable + a usb hub usually. the hub allows me to use a longer cable.
pick where PRA sends the pics. make the active session in capture one use that folder. there is no interaction between the two programs, but capture one actively monitors the folder and updates in real time based on the contents.
i have just one monitor (20" widescreen acer al2051w). i have created and applied an icc-profile with x-rite eye1 display hardware/software.
i alt-tab between the programs. you could easily split them onto two monitors if you wanted to.
i'm really no expert with capture one and it's an awful interface on windows, but you're supposed to be able to have it apply a custom whitebalance to every image that comes in, so you'd take a grey-card w/ the first shot, adjust it, then all the next "real" pictures would be color-correct (if you're in a constant light). i just use it as a much bigger, and color-corrected monitor to check exposure, composition, and focus. then process the RAW files with bridge/acr (or whatever program you would like).
there are probably other programs that would do what capture one is doing for me.
if we were using canon cameras, capture one does everything that PRA does.
hopefully that answers (most of) your questions
