If it is not possible to capture an image without key-stoning or perspective distortion,
then Capture One Pro 7 has a quick and accurate tool for correcting it.
The keystone tool is found in the composition tool tab.
Vertical and horizontal key-stoning can be corrected with a cursor tool for each type.
Select the cursor tool for the type of keystoning that is present.
In this case vertical.
Two guide lines are shown at the top of the image.
Grab the control points and align them to the edges to be corrected.
Click the 'apply' button in the center of the image to complete the correction.
Capture One will crop automatically but is is possible to adjust.
To crop outside of the image area, check the box in the crop tool.
By default the amount of keystone correction is set to 80 percent.
It can look a little unnatural at 100 percent so experiment with the level of correction you prefer.
Also, experiment with the aspect slider.
If the keystone correction has made the subject a little to narrow or vice verse,
adjust to your preferred look.
Use the same method for images with horizontal key-stoning or a combination of both.
