If desired, color, contrast, sharpness, and image quality can be adjusted using the following tool palettes:
Curves
The Curves palette makes it possible to adjust color balance and contrast in specific portions of the
tone range. For example, you can selectively enhance detail in dark portions of the image (shadow),
brighten mid-tones, or bring out details in highlights. Changes can be made to all the component
colors in the image or only to specific color components (channels).
Color Balance
The Color Balance palette can be used to adjust brightness, contrast, and color balance over the
entire tone range.
LCH Editor
The LCH Editor is used to adjust brightness and contrast in specific portions of the tone range, edit
chroma to modify color saturation, or "vividness," and change one set of hues (or colors) in the
image to a different color.
Unsharp Mask
The tools in the Unsharp Mask palette sharpen outlines, either throughout the image or only where
specific colors predominate.
To open any of the above palettes, click the triangle at its top left corner.
