2.2.3 Tone Compressor controls
Brightness
Adjusts the overall brightness of the tone mapped image. The default value is 0.
Tonal Range Compression
Controls the compression of the tonal range. Moving the slider to the right has the effect of
shifting both shadows and highlights toward the mid-tones in the tone mapped image. The
default value is 0.
Contrast Adaptation
Adjusts the influence of the average brightness in relation to the intensity of the processed pixel.
Moving the slider to the right tends to result in more “pronounced” colors. Moving the slider to
the left tends to result in a more “natural” look. The default value is 0.
White Point – Black Point
Both sliders control how the minimum and maximum values of the tone mapped image are set.
Moving the sliders to the right increases global contrast. Moving them to the left reduces
clipping at the extremes. The White Point slider sets the value for the maximum of the tone
mapped image (pure white, or level 255). The Black Point slider sets the value for the minimum
of the tone mapped image (pure black, or level 0). The default values are 0.
Color Temperature
Adjusts the color temperature of the tone mapped image relative to the temperature of the HDR
source image. Moving the slider to the right will give a “warmer”, more yellow-orange colored
look. Moving the slider to the left gives a “colder”, more bluish look. A value of 0 (default)
preserves the original color temperature of the HDR source image.
Color Saturation
Adjusts the color saturation of the tone mapped image. The greater the saturation, the more
intense the color. The value affects each color channel equally. The default value is 0.
