ColorQuartet 5.0 Pro

To check whether the shadow point found by ColorQuartet is actually part of the image and
not, for example, a scratch in the negative, open the densitometer window, choose Point Sam-
ple, click on the black square, and observe the location of the cursor in the feedback window.
When Fixed Density is activated, the shadow point can be set manually. Drag the relevant histo-
gram as explained under
Advanced features in the ‘Negative Profile’ window. Or type in the
desired value in the None field for the relevant channel (Red, Green or Blue) in the Exposure
Densities section.
