BRIGHTNESS / CONTRAST / COLOR CORRECTIONS
This palette allows easy corrections to be made to brightness, contrast, and color.
1
Click on the brightness / contrast / color-balance button
to open
the correction palette.
2
Drag the brightness, contrast, or color
sliders, or enter specific values in the
corresponding text box to make
corrections.
• Dragging each slider to the right or inputting a positive
number in the text box increases the brightness,
contrast, and color.
• To correct for an unnatural color cast is simple. If the
image is too:
Red - decrease the amount of red.
Green - decrease the amount of green.
Blue - decrease the amount of blue.
Cyan - increase the amount of red.
Magenta - increase the amount of green.
Yellow - increase the amount of blue.

the tone curve/histogram window is open, the changes can also be seen in the histograms.
• Click the reset button to cancel changes.
