● Gamma-Controls the contrast affecting the mid-level grays or midtones of an image. Adjusting the gamma of an image allows you to change the brightness values of the middle range of gray tones without dramatically altering the shadows and highlights. A lower gamma setting makes grays look black, and makes dark colors even darker. ● Backlight Comp-Compensates in cases where a subject with a large amount of background light would otherwise be obscured by blooming or silhouetting.
