Tool usage guide
Easily adjust the exposure of your photos to correct lighting issues or achieve a specific aesthetic. This tool simulates camera exposure compensation, allowing you to brighten underexposed images or darken overexposed ones with precise control over brightness and contrast.
Background
A series of photos taken at an evening event turned out too dark to post.
Problem
The subjects are barely visible due to low ambient light.
How to use
Upload the photo and set the exposure compensation to +1.5 EV to brighten the scene.
exposure: 1.5, format: 'original'Outcome
The subjects are clearly visible with improved brightness and balanced contrast.
Background
A bright sunny day caused the sky and clouds to look washed out in a landscape shot.
Problem
The image lacks contrast and the highlights are blown out.
How to use
Upload the image and apply a -1.0 EV exposure adjustment to recover detail in the highlights.
exposure: -1.0, format: 'png', quality: 100The value represents EV (Exposure Value) stops. A positive value increases brightness, while a negative value decreases it.
Yes, you can choose to keep the original format or convert your file to JPEG, PNG, or WebP.
Adjusting exposure is a digital process. Using high-quality output settings like PNG or high-quality JPEG will help maintain the best visual results.
Yes, the maximum file size for image uploads is 10 MB.
A quality setting of 95 is recommended for a good balance between visual fidelity and file size for lossy formats like JPEG and WebP.
Outcome
The sky regains its blue tone and the clouds show more texture and definition.
