I sent in a post about using Nikonscan last week (part copied below) with no responses. Can someone please enlighten me as to the usefulness of the two sliders on the left side of the curves window? For what kinds of situations or problems would you resort to using them?
Also, anyone know a web resource that looks at these adjustments in a practical way, describing when to use them and what the risks are? All the articles I've read are too technical and rarely touch on "why" "why not" or "when" to apply the various histogram functions. Thanks. Ed Verkaik -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------- Today I was playing around in the Nikonscan Curves histogram and toyed with the two sliders on the left side. I noticed that on a photo with bright sky and dark ground, you can move the lower slider up to add light to the ground, more effectively than bending the curve. But I do not know what those two sliders do or should be used for. Can anyone explain in non-technical terms what effect (practical examples) using either of those sliders has and when they should be used over any other methods? Are there risks? (Please don't tell me to go master PS... I like using Nikonscan for this. :-) ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe filmscanners' or 'unsubscribe filmscanners_digest' (as appropriate) in the message title or body
