Phase One Capture PilotPartnering with the recent release of Capture One Pro 7.1.2, Phase One has also released an update to Capture Pilot! Capture Pilot is a great companion to Capture One Pro by allowing you to view and rate image previews wirelessly on Capture One 6 & 7 or IQ2 digital backs, and even remote capture with some camera control functionality after an in-app purchase. With the new update, it just got even better!

Some of the new features of Capture Pilot 1.3 include:

  • White balance picker
  • Camera control white balance menu
  • Camera control exposure compensation dial
  • Preliminary Phase One IQ2 support
  • Numerous improvements
  • New icon
  • Bug fixes

After working with it, it shows to be a stable release. The camera controls were quick and responsive, even when switching complete camera bodies. The white balance eyedropper easily sets the white balance just by tapping on a neutral color, or if you prefer to use menus you can choose a white balance from the camera parameters menu. Similarly, you can adjust exposure compensation via a slider or a menu as well. While some of the new features are described more vaguely (i.e. numerous improvements) stability seems to be included as it operated much better overall. Below are photos and screenshots of some of the new features! Head over to your iTunes App Store to download the app or click here to grab it!
