Use these tools to select the portion
of the image to be scanned (the
“
crop ”) and to rotate and flip the
image prior to scanning. You can
also select a new focus area and
scroll images that have been opened
in Nikon Scan after scanning.
Gives height and width of the cur-
rent crop and the coordinates of its
top left corner. The color value
display shows the color of the pixel
under the cursor before and after
processing. This is where you adjust the resolu-
tion and size of the image according
to the output device (printer or
monitor) on which the image will be
displayed. One of three color editing tools
offered by Nikon Scan, the curves
tool is useful when adjusting contrast
and making changes to color balance
that effect only a specific portion of
the tone range (shadows, mid-tones,
or highlights).
Use the color balance tools to make
adjustments to brightness, contrast,
and color balance that affect the
entire image. Like the Curves too, the LCH editor
can be used to adjust brightness and
contrast in shadows, mid-tones, and
highlights. It also incorporates hue
and chroma editors, which provide
extremely flexible tools for adjusting
color. Unsharp mask increases the sharp-
ness of the image by making edges
more distinct, either over the entire
image or in areas where specific col-
ors are prominent.
