Note
• White Balance
This setting adjusts the hue of the white
areas of an image. Lighting, camera
settings and other influences will affect the
appearance of white. The white areas of a
picture may be slightly pink, yellow or
some other colour. By using this setting,
you can correct that effect and bring the
white areas back to pure white.
• Sharpness
This setting enhances the detail of an
image, similar to adjusting the fine focus
on a camera. If the image is not in true
focus and you cannot see the fine details
of the picture, then adjust the sharpness.
• Colour Density
This setting adjusts the total amount of
colour in the image. You can increase or
decrease the amount of colour in an
image to improve a washed out or weak
picture.
