nPicture Control Parameters

Fine-tune individual Picture Control parameters, including sharpening, clarity, contrast, and saturation, or select Auto to let Capture NX‑D adjust settings au- tomatically (note that Auto produces results that may vary with exposure and the position and size of the subject in the frame). What parameters are available depends on whether a monochrome Picture Control is selected.

•Sharpening: Control the sharpness of outlines. Choose higher values for more sharpening.

•Clarity: Adjust clarity (requires Latest Picture Control or a picture taken with a camera that supports the Clarity parameter).

•Contrast: Adjust contrast. Choose lower values for less contrast, higher values for more contrast.

•Brightness: Adjust brightness without losing de- tail in highlights and shadows.

•Saturation (non-monochrome only): Control the vivid- ness of colors. Choose lower values for less satu- ration, higher values for more saturation.

•Hue (non-monochrome only): Adjust hue.

•Filter Effect (monochrome only): Simulate the effects of color filters on monochrome photographs.

•Toning (monochrome only): Choose the tint used in monochrome photographs.

•Toning Saturation (monochrome only): Choose the satu- ration of the tint used in monochrome pictures. Does not apply to black-and-white images.

Note that Contrast and Brightness can not be adjusted if Camera compatible is selected for pictures taken with Active D‑Lighting or a Picture Control that uses a custom curve.
