Hello,
I test the trial version of C1 to replace Aperture. I am very happy with the results of C1 but i have some problems with the quality of the exported jpeg --> loss of details in jpeg with dimension inferior to 100 %.
Tests (RAW from a Canon 7DII)
Link to results files (long edge 2048 px) here :

Test 1
- C1 : Export variant in jpeg, Long Edge=2048 px, quality 80%
File : Q60A0728_c1_2048.jpg
File size = 1.3 Mo
Test 2
- C1 : Export variant in tiff full size
- Aperture : Import the tiff file with no processing
- Aperture : Export in jpeg, long edge 2048 px, quality 10/12
File : Q60A0728_c1_ap_2048.jpg
File size = 952 Ko
Test 3
- C1 : Export variant in tiff full size
- Photoshop element : Open the tiff file, resize to 2048 px (long edge), export in jpeg in quality 10/12
File : Q60A0728_c1_ps_2048.jpg
File size = 910 Ko
Results
- jpeg C1 file seem less detailed (and is bigger) compared to aperture and ps jpeg files (see right head)
- For the C1 processing : Clarity = 20, Structure = 40 (when i reset clarity and structure to 0, there is less difference in quality but the C1 file is always bigger)
Probably, i do something wrong? What do you think? Thanks.
(Note : With C1 exported jpeg at full size, quality 80% --> no problem)
