Examples of Correction ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adjusting the Overall Brightness
• Move the mid-point to the left to increase the overall brightness,
and move it to the right to increase the overall darkness.
Correcting an Overexposed or Underexposed Image
• If the image is overexposed, move the left side point to the right
until it lines up with the left edge of the histogram.
• If the image is underexposed, move the right side point to the left
until it lines up with the right edge of the histogram.
• In this state, you can move the mid-point left or right to adjust the
overall brightness.
Increasing the Contrast
• In an image lacking in contrast, the histogram peaks will be con-
centrated at the center. Move the left and right points until they
line up with both edges of the histogram respectively to make the
bright and dark areas of the image stand out.
• In this state, you can move the mid-point left or right to adjust the
overall brightness.
