🎯 Tips for Best Results

Brightness & Contrast

  • Start Subtle: Begin with small adjustments (1.1-1.3 range)
  • Check Histogram: Ensure you're not losing highlight or shadow detail
  • Preserve Whites: Avoid over-brightening that washes out highlights
  • Maintain Blacks: Keep dark areas detailed, not pure black

Saturation Enhancement

  • Natural Look: 1.2-1.5 range usually looks most natural
  • Skin Tones: Be careful with portraits - avoid oversaturation
  • Landscapes: Can handle higher saturation (1.5-2.0)
  • Product Photos: Moderate enhancement (1.3-1.6) works well

Sharpening

  • Subtle Application: 0.3-0.6 range for natural results
  • Avoid Over-sharpening: High values can create artifacts
  • Check Edges: Look for halos around high-contrast edges
  • Portrait Care: Be gentle with skin areas

Noise Reduction

  • Start Low: Begin with 0.5-0.8 strength
  • Preserve Details: Higher values may blur important features
  • Check Text: Ensure text remains readable after processing
  • Multiple Passes: Sometimes two light passes work better than one heavy

Color Balance

  • Reference Points: Use neutral areas (whites, grays) as reference
  • Skin Tones: Natural skin color is a good indicator
  • Small Adjustments: Β±10-20 range usually sufficient
  • Check Overall: Ensure the entire image looks balanced

Vintage Effects

  • Moderate Intensity: 0.3-0.7 range for authentic vintage look
  • Subject Matter: Works great with portraits and landscapes
  • Color Harmony: Consider how sepia tones complement your subject
  • Historical Context: Perfect for period photography

HDR Effects

  • Natural Look: 0.3-0.6 range for realistic HDR
  • Landscape Enhancement: Excellent for nature and city photography
  • Portrait Care: Be subtle with people to avoid unnatural skin
  • Detail Enhancement: Great for bringing out texture and depth
