Color Characteristics
- Hue refers to the actual color of an image (e.g. red, green, blue) and adjusting hue changes the overall color tint without affecting brightness or saturation.
- Saturation refers to the intensity or purity of a color, with highly saturated colors appearing vivid and intense, and desaturated colors appearing muted or washed out.
- Brightness refers to the overall lightness or darkness of an image, with increasing brightness making the image lighter, and decreasing brightness making it darker.
- Contrast refers to the difference in brightness between different parts of an image, with high contrast resulting in a visually dynamic image, and low contrast resulting in a softer appearance.
Adjusting Color
- Adjusting color involves manipulating various aspects of an image's color characteristics to achieve a desired look or effect, including changing brightness, contrast, saturation, hue, or applying color filters and adjustments.
Exposure
- Overexposure occurs when too much light is reflected into the camera, resulting in an image that is brighter than normal exposure.
- Underexposure occurs when not enough light hits the film strip or camera sensor, resulting in an image that is darker than normal exposure.
- Exposure refers to the amount of light being captured by the camera, and is the amount of light that is thought to be needed by the subject.
