Rather than providing rigid step-by-step instructions for specific scenarios like "How do I saturate a blue sky?", this guide teaches you to master Capture One's tools. You'll learn how to select any color—including blue skies—and enhance both the color and light balance of selected ranges.

The goal is to help you understand the full capabilities of Capture One's tools, enabling you to choose the right tool for each task. For instance, Capture One offers several methods for adjusting contrast and light balance, each serving a distinct purpose in your photographic toolbox.
