SanDisk and Phase One Collaboration

Phase One and SanDisk Corporation are helping photographers to realize the benefits of shooting in RAW. All SanDisk Extreme III CompactFlash cards now include a full and free edition of Phase One's Capture One LE RAW Workflow software. Capture One LE normally retails at $99.

The bundle of the two products will enable photographers that shoot in JPEG to easily join their professional peers in working in RAW. Extreme III users who already shoot RAW images can now process their images in the industry leading Capture One at no additional charge.

Purchase of Extreme III CompactFlash cards also offers upgrades from Capture One LE to Capture One PRO at a 15 per cent discount. Upgrades can be purchased through Phase One's on-line store at www.phaseone.com.

The RAW file format has transformed digital photography. A RAW file contains the original, unprocessed data from a camera's image sensor. Unlike shooting in JPEG, where camera settings are recorded and fixed at the time of capture, shooting in RAW enables photographers to make post capture changes to the many exposure settings including the linearity, matrix processing, white point, color balance, sharpening, contrast, brightness, color space and saturation.

The Capture One LE license bundled with Extreme III cards works for both Windows and Mac operating systems and includes 2 computer activations and one free LE to LE update.

This is the second bundling collaboration between Phase One and SanDisk. All of Phase One's P-series digital camera backs, including the P 45, P 30 and P 21 products, are bundled with the award winning SanDisk Extreme III Compact Flash storage cards and accommodating USB readers.

Customers can find more detailed information on how to download, install and activate the Capture One LE license by referring to the coupon enclosed in the SanDisk Extreme III packaging or at www.phaseone.com/sandisk.
