Adjust

Edited

Overview

Adjust gives you full manual control over your image’s look and feel.

Fine-tune light, color, detail, and tone to get precise, professional-grade results.

You can also use Adjust to create your own custom filters, or fine-tune an image after applying a filter if the result isn’t quite right.


Basic

Control overall exposure and color balance:

  • Temp / Tint – Adjust white balance and color cast

  • Exposure – Brighten or darken the image

  • Contrast – Increase or reduce the separation between lights and darks

  • Highlights / Shadows – Recover detail in bright or dark areas

  • Whites / Blacks – Fine-tune the brightest and darkest tones

  • Saturation / Vibrance – Boost color intensity (Vibrance is more skin-tone friendly)

Tone Curve

Shape brightness and contrast with precision.

  • Adjust the RGB curve for overall tone

  • Fine-tune Red, Green, and Blue channels individually

  • Ideal for creating cinematic contrast or subtle fades

Color Mixer (HSL)

Individually control each color:

  • Hue – Shift the color tone

  • Saturation – Increase or reduce color intensity

  • Lightness – Brighten or darken specific colors

Perfect for skin tones, skies, foliage, and stylized looks.

Color Grading

Add mood and depth with split toning:

  • Adjust color balance between shadows and highlights

  • Control blending for smooth transitions

Great for cinematic or stylized edits.

Detail

Enhance texture and sharpness:

  • Texture / Clarity – Increase micro-contrast and definition

  • Sharpen – Improve edge detail

  • Radius / Detail / Masking – Control sharpening precision

  • Grain – Add film-like texture

  • Noise Reduction – Reduce luminance noise while preserving detail

Effects

Add subtle finishing touches:

  • Midpoint / Fade / Highlight Protection

  • Faded Look – Create a soft, vintage feel

  • Chromatic Aberration / Color Fringing – Correct lens artifacts

Calibration

Advanced color tuning:

  • Adjust shadow tint and primary color hues

  • Fine-tune red, green, and blue color response

Best for advanced users or matching specific camera profiles.

Tip:

Use Adjust for precise, manual edits. If you want targeted changes to a specific area (like fixing a face, clothing, or background), try Inpaint instead.
