Histogram Tab
It is here in the
Histogram Tab
that you have complete control of the
Saved Image Histogram
which allows you to either manually control
the
brightness
of each of the color channels or let the software
perform this task for you. This allows you to pull out as much detail
(
Shadows
,
Midtones
,
Highlights
) hidden in the image as you can. The
Histogram provides a quick picture of the tonal range of the image,
Feature
Title
Usage
Histogram
You can use the 2 controls to manually adjust the
image’s dark tones (Left control), and the gamma
highlight brightness levels (Right control) to
regulate the
image’s contrast, shading, and
image layers to obtain the best balance for the
image.
Moving the
Black
control to the right (or enter a
larger number) darkens the image and to the left
lightens the image.
Moving the
Gray
control to the left (or enter a
smaller number) brightens the image and to the
right darkens the image.
The goal is to use as much of the necessary data
(the graph) between the two controls without
clipping the necessary data.
Color Channel
This allows you to select either all 3 color channels
together (
Red
,
Green
, and
Blue
), or select each
color independently to use with the above
Histogram controls.
You can also have the software automatically
determine the best
Histogram
settings for you.
Apply
This control allows you to apply the changes
performed on the image via the
Histogram
sliders.
If you decide to keep the changes, don’t forget to
use the
Save Image As …
icon.
Cancel
This control allows you to
cancel
the changes
performed on the image via the
Histogram
sliders.
