Want to make Capture One your next destination ?
Photo migration towards Capture One made Fast, Accurate and Secure with Avalanche
You can now turn your existing photo catalogs from Aperture, Lightroom, Luminar 4/AI and Apple Photos (coming soon) into Capture One catalogs ready to be opened and edited.
Like all versions of Avalanche, Avalanche for Capture One allows you to transfer photo catalogs from one application to another while preserving your modifications and settings made in the original editing software.
Metadata management is also at the heart of Avalanche. All Exif, IPTC metadata will correctly flow from your source catalog to Capture One.
Flags, color labels are properly handled.
Faces are not supported in Capture One, but Avalanche will preserve the faces labels as Keywords.
Avalanche also smartly migrates the GPS information present in your source catalog.

Yes. It never expires, and all features are available.
Only the first 100 images will be converted.
No yet.
We are looking whether brush masks, gradient masks,… could be supported in an upcoming version.
When exporting an effect that has an associated mask, the mask will be ignored.
However, all such images are added to a dedicated new album named “Effects with masks” for easy identification in Luminar AI.
No. It is unlikely that we will support layers due to their complexity.
However, all images are added to a dedicated new album named “With losses” for easy identification in Luminar AI.
Yes. Avalanche for Luminar preserves all supported annotations in Luminar.
When moving from Aperture or Lightroom, annotations are saved in an auxiliary database that can be reused in the future, even if Luminar cannot display them.
Annotations that are currently supported in Luminar (favorite tag) are transferred and visible.
No in the foreseeable future.
We are sorry for our friends on Windows but porting Avalanche to Windows is currently out of scope.
Fill in your details and we’ll get back to you in no time.
