Test Strip
Overview
Inspired by photochemical printing practices, this tool breaks up the image into a series of strips with exposure adjustments in constant increments. This makes it very easy to preview the image at different exposure levels. Test Strip requires the image’s Gamma curve to be correctly configured in the Preset Settings to show accurate exposure increments.
