Nikon NX2 Saturation and Hue Adjustment, Filter Effects Monochrome only, Off, Yellow, Orange, Red

The Brightness slider enables you to control the brightness within the image. Move the slider to the left to darken the image or move the slider to the right to brighten the image.

❏Saturation and Hue Adjustment

The Saturation and Hue options enable you to control characteristics of the color of the image. The results of the Saturation and Hue section are also dependent on the Picture Control option selected.

Turn on the Auto option to enable Capture NX 2 to determine the appropriate amount of saturation, or color intensity, for the current image. The Saturation slider is not accessible while the Auto option is

turned on.

Use the Saturation slider to adjust the amount of saturation for the current image. Move this slider to the left to reduce the saturation and make the colors less vibrant, or move the slider to the right to increase the saturation and make the colors more vivid.

The Hue slider enables you to alter the hue of your entire image without affecting brightness or saturation. Moving this slider to the left will cause skin tones to become increasingly red while moving this slider to the right will produce more yellow skin tones.
