Effects
Brightness: The brightness is not changed linearly, it is adjusted to normal human
perception. This means that changes in the median brightness range are stronger than
in dark and bright ranges.
Contrast: In photo editing, the level of the difference in brightness is referred to as
contrast. If the contrast is increased bright areas become brighter and dark areas
darker. Contrast is also often referred to as "brilliance".
Saturation: Refers to the color intensity of an image. If the saturation is turned up too
high the image will look artificial. Reducing the saturation completely produces a black
and white image (grayscale).
Hue: The color wheel allows you to color in the image. The further out you place the
point, the stronger the image will be colored.
Automatic correction for color and exposure: The optimum color setting/exposure is
calculated automatically.
Speed
When you've specified the object's playback speed, slow and fast motion are also
possible. The video can also be played in reverse.
