Contrast: Contrast increases the glowing element of a color terms of its brightness. A high contrast in a picture makes the topic focused to face out against a background or it brings into focus a good array of subjects like photo of a bazaar. The higher the contrast, better are the small print brought out.

Hue: Some dSLR cameras with camera accessories have hue option, which shifts all colors by a particular degree. You’ll do that using a picture editing software also. This feature is often used for dreamlike photography to match with the tone of the event.

Tone: The tone in a picture sets the mood of the image. The tone might be warm or cool. A warm tone tends to be redder with predominant colors red, yellow and orange. Warm tone is taken into account masculine where as cool tone is taken into account as feminine.

Sharpness: it’s also called as acutance. It’s a measure of the sharpness with which a movie can imitate the sting of an object. While a reduced sharpness gives a washed out appearance, a greater sharpness gives a grainier image. Sharp images are appealing in close-ups whereas it’s odd in portraits.

Sepia: In olden photographs, a chemical was wont to make the images last longer. This generates the sepia tone in photographs. This feature is readymade in DSLRs and Modern digital cameras.

Black and white: this is often a typical feature in digital cameras and DSLR cameras with camera trap. This colour scheme does have a charm attached thereto but it’s often overused. It’s always a best idea to require a color photograph then convert it into grayscale on computer. You’ll increase contrast to enhance detailing in grey scale images.

Saturation: Saturation is that the intensity of a specific color. A picture with color saturation as zero may be a gray-scale image. Some digital cameras have a high contrast setting that increases the saturation of all colors in a picture. This attribute are often utilized in Photoshop also.
