Can someone tell me the optimal sharpening settings in Capture one, in order to ensure that the resulting image
will be optimal for post prossesing and especially resampling for large prints.

Thank you

For anything that you may want to resize upwards I'd see that there are no halos is sharpening - C1 can produce halos when you go above 100, but this depends on material, too, some photos can handle more, some less. It's quite easy to see how sharpening does in C1 by magnifying sharpening preview.

I'm not an expert when it comes to printing photos, but what I have seen on good quality prints that they reveal everything you see on screen. It is another matter altogether if you aim the print to be viewed from half a meter or further, then you can do extra sharpening for added punch which may look terrible on screen.

One principle I have always had and still do: do for every photo what that particular photo needs for getting the mood and message out. This means that even if it is timeconsuming I take a good look of every photo chosen and decide editing steps indivually for each one.

What I am trying to determine is what the equivalent sharpening setting in C1 is, to the 0 sharpening setting
in BreezeBrowser or Zoombrowser. I prefare to sharpen in Photoshop where I sharpen according to the image and the intended use of it.
