Unsharp Mask

The name “unsharp mask” (USM) can be misleading. Using this tool actually gives an apparent increase in image sharpness by enhancing the edge differences between pixels of different colors. When applied, the software evaluates the contrast differences between pixels and either enhances the difference or not, based on setting made in the preferences. There are two controls over the USM:

Amount

The amount of change is entered here as a percent. The higher the setting, the more sharpening that will be applied.

Threshold

The threshold level controls at what level the sharpening will begin.

At the default “0” setting the sharpening amount is applied to every pixel. As you adjust the setting up, you control where the sharpening

will begin.

The active capture file is marked with a white frame, and is the one that can be edited with a change of gradation curve, gray balance, color balance or exchanged with a new capture file

from the capture collection. Click on the other capture file to activate it. Files from different collections can also be compared. Use F2 to access the active capture files within the collection. The layout of the two captures is automatically adjusted to make full use of the preview area. However, if there is lack of space then hide the function tabs by pressing F6 (see also Expand Preview).
