Black Control Point
The Black Control Point enables you to
place a Control Point directly on your
image, and to cause that targeted color
to not only become black, but also to
neutralize the dark tones of your image.
The Black Control Point is not accessible
while working within the Browser.
Black points are normally set on what
should be the darkest point of the
image and are used to set one end
of the dynamic range of the image.
The Double-Threshold function within
the Photo Info’s Histogram section is
designed specifically to help you locate
the darkest and lightest sections of
your image.
Please see page 100 for
more information on how to use the
Double-Threshold function. A Black
Control Point is often used in conjunc-
tion with a White Control Point.

Toolbar F4 – Black, White, and
Neutral Control Points
This Toolbar contains the Black, White, and Neutral Control Points, which provide
a new and exciting way of correcting the tonal range and color of your images.
All three of these Control Points enable you to identify and control the tonal value
and color of the image and provide you the ability to adjust, move, and remove
their effects at any point in the future. This Toolbar can be quickly viewed and
hidden by using the shortcut ‘F4’.
