None: No clipping occurs.

At White: Any color channel exceeding the maximum value of 1 is clipped to 1.

At Black: Any color channel falling below the minimum value of 0 is clipped to 0.

At Black and White: All color channels are clipped to a minimum of 0 and a maximum of 1.

Mix: Sets the percentage of the original image to be blended with the color-corrected image.

Gamma

Adjusts the relative distribution of brightness in the midtones of an image, without adjusting
the white and black points. The perceived result is to brighten and darken the areas of medium
brightness in an image, while leaving the highlights and shadows untouched. This avoids a
washed-out effect.

This is one of the most useful filters for correcting poor exposure in images, and should almost
always be used first before trying the Brightness filter.
