Capture One - Spotting image issues using a solar curve

From the creator

In this video, I wanted to share with you how I spot issues in my images before I print them or enter them into photo competitions. This technique involves a pretty wild curve normally known as a Solar Curve. I quickly talk about how you can make your own, or you can download one from my site if you wanted to save time and use the ones I have created. The Solar Curve is a great way to easily see things like dust spots, halos from sky replacements, and other image issues that are difficult to see normally. Let me know what you think and if you find this technique useful.
