Contrast
Contrast
is the scale of difference between
Black
and
White
in your images. Without contrast you
wouldn't have an image because there wouldn't
be any differentiation between light and dark.
Moving the slider to the right increases the
contrast
(makes the image brighter), while moving the slider
to the left decreases the
contrast
(makes the
image darker).
The
contrast
has a range from
0
to
15
.
Sharpness
Sharpness
can be defined as edge contrast, that
is, the contrast along edges in an object in the
image. When we increase sharpness, we increase
the contrast only along/near edges in the object
while leaving smooth areas of the image alone.
Moving the slider to the right increases the
sharpness
(makes the image sharper), while
moving the slider to the left decreases the
sharpness
(makes the image smoother).
The range goes from
0
to
7
.
DPC

P
ixel
C
orrection is used to detect and
remove dead pixels from the active image.
Moving the slider to the right increases the
aggressiveness of the DPC
, while moving the slider
to the left decreases the
aggressiveness.
A higher
DPC
value can help remove amp glow on
long exposures (but can remove some fainter
stars).
The range goes from
0
to
7
.
Flat Field
Flat Fielding
is a process that help remove
imperfection in the light path to the sensor (such as
dust particles on the lens).
