Adjustment Options
|
Exposure |
Drag the slider to the right to increase exposure, or drag to the left to decrease exposure. One eV is equivalent to one stop of exposure change. |
|
Highlight Enhancement |
Drag the slider to the right to recover detail in overexposed areas of the image. |
|
Fill Light |
Drag the slider to the right to add light to the darkest areas of the image. |
|
Contrast |
Drag the slider to the right to increase contrast, or to the left to decrease contrast. |
|
Saturation |
Drag the slider to the right to increase saturation, or to the left to decrease saturation. |
|
Vibrance |
Drag the slider to the right to increase vibrance, or to the left to decrease vibrance. Increasing the vibrance does not affect skin tone in an image. This is unlike saturation, which intensifies all colors equally. |
|
Clarity |
The Clarity tool adds subtle definition to the details in your image. Use the Clarity slider to enhance the contrast of midtones, without overpowering the shadows and highlights. Drag the slider to the right to increase clarity, or to the left to reverse clarity. |
Use the Settings button to reset sliders to Last Saved or Last Used settings. You can also save your settings as a preset, copy, or paste them.
eV stands for exposure value. When you capture an image, the exposure is determined by several things — the f-stop (or aperture) shutter speed, and ISO. Typically, the camera automatically determines the optimal exposure based on a built-in light meter and then sets the f-stop and shutter speed accordingly. However, the light meter can be fooled by a bright sky or dark surroundings, leading it to choose an incorrect f-stop and shutter speed. This results in an underexposed or overexposed image. With the exposure slider you can compensate for exposure problems caused by incorrect settings when the image was captured.
