Bits and Bit Depth
A bit (Binary digit) is the smallest possible unit of information on a
computer; it represents yes or no; on or off; 1 or 0. Bit Depth is used to
describe the complexity of a graphic image.
One-bit, or bi-level, images are black and white. This is the Black and White
setting in ScanGear CS-U. Eight-bit grayscale uses 256 shades of gray to
accurately represent most black and white photographs or gray
interpretations of color images. This is the Grayscale setting in ScanGear
CS-U. Twenty-four-bit color, also called True Color, uses three eight-bit
channels, one channel each for Red, Green and Blue, to create up to 16.7
million colors. This is the Color setting in ScanGear CS-U.
Brightness
The overall amount of lightness or darkness in an image. An image with
maximum brightness tends toward white; an image with minimum
brightness tends toward black. While contrast refers to the range and
number of tones in an image, brightness refers to the intensity of tones.
