  Lots of banding with linear workspace + Optical Flares

  Posted by Ryan Paterson on March 6, 2013 at 4:44 am

  So I’m trying out linear color for the first time to see what it’s all about and I’m just getting a ton of banding while using the Optical Flares plugin (the VideoCopilot one, not the native one)

  Any tips on this? I tried upping the workspace from 16bpc to 32bpc but it didn’t help. Any and all suggestions are welcome, thank you!

  Add Grain usually works for me- it does not have to have a high intensity (0.3) or a large size (0.5) and I use monochromatic.
