    I've had a similar problem – see this thread.

    Clearly something isn't working as it should.

    By default, when you use the keystone tool by lining up the guides, Capture One makes and adjustment of 80% of the adjustment you have set. The theory is that if you adjust converging verticals by 100% of the geometrically correct amount, it doesn't look natural. You can see in your screen shot that the Amount box in the keystone tool says 80. Try changing that to 100 on this image (without moving the guides again).

    This is a rather strange feature. Whether parallel verticals look natural or not would clearly depend on the content.

    Maybe so, but I’m just trying to explain how it is, in the hope that it might help the OP obtain the desired look. And yes, of course it will depend on the content. But if it were set at 100% by default, there would be images where you might want to reduce it. The most important thing is to understand how the tool works so that you can get the results you want from each image.

    Certainly, it wasn't my intention to imply anything else.
