7.4 HISTOGRAM PROCESSING GUIDE

This guide shows simple corrections that can be
made with a histogram. Unlike the tone curve,
the histogram provides information on a specific
image. This can used to evaluate the image and
make adjustments accordingly.
The pixel distribution in the histogram shows the
entire tonal range of the image is not used.
There is an absence pixels in the highlights.
By moving the highlight slider to the left to set
the white level to where the pixel distribution
begins, image contrast is improved.
The gamma slider can be used to change the relative distribution of the tones in the image. By
moving the gamma slider to the left toward the shadows, the image becomes lighter. By moving the
gamma slider in the opposite direction, the image becomes darker.
