Brightness/Contrast

Adjust the brightness and contrast of the image.
Move the Brightness slider to the left to darken and right to brighten the image.
Move the Contrast slider to the left to decrease and right to increase the contrast of the image.

Tone

Adjust the brightness balance by specifying Highlight (the brightest level), Shadow (the darkest
level) and Midtone (the color in the middle of Highlight and Shadow).
Move the Highlight slider to the left to brighten the image.
Move the Midtone slider to the left to brighten and right to darken the image.
Move the Shadow slider to the right to darken the image.

Color Balance

Adjust the vividness and color tone of the image.
Move the Color Balance slider to the left or right to emphasize the corresponding color.

Note

These are complementary color pairs (each pair produces a shade of gray when mixed).
You can reproduce the natural colors of the scene by reducing the cast color and
increasing the complementary color. "Colorcast" is a phenomenon where a specific color
affects the entire picture due to the weather or ambient strong colors.
It is usually difficult to correct the image completely by adjusting only one color pair. It is
recommended that you find a portion in the image where it should be white, and adjust all
three color pairs so that the portion turns white.
