An image with high contrast has few gray shades between black and white and appears to be dominated by stark light and dark tones. An image with low contrast has many shades of gray and tends to look flat and dull. Change contrast using the highlight, shadow, and midtone settings.

The higher the bit depth, the finer the level of control in adjusting these image manipulation functions.
