With this powerful tool you gain complete control over tonal range. This single tool lets you fine-tune contrast, color, and brightness by adjusting shadows, midtones, and highlights separately.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;37887&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;fadeIn&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1442426160933{margin-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]Once you are used to this tool,\u00a0you will soon appreciate the extensive amount of\u00a0control it gives you. The concept is simple but effective: The diagonal line represents the original state of your photo, and\u00a0it&#8217;s going from the shadows of your photo (down left) to midtones (middle of the graph) to the highlights (up right). You can tap at one point of the diagonal line and drag it up to lighten \u2014 or drag it down to darken this part.<br \/>\nSo, for example, if you want to lighten up the shadows in a photo, simply drag a point on the left side of the graph upwards. To darken the highlights, simply drag a point on\u00a0the right side of the graph downwards.<br \/>\n<em>Expert Mode<\/em>: Those who mastered the basics of the Curves tool can add a new dimension by adjusting the Red, Green and Blue channel separately. This provides entirely new ways to adjust\/correct white balance afterwards, or to create your personal\u00a0color effect.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_id=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column]<div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-69da16c1efb1f\" data-id=\"69da16c1efb1f\" data-height=\"40\" data-height-mobile=\"40\" data-height-tab=\"40\" data-height-tab-portrait=\"40\" data-height-mobile-landscape=\"40\" style=\"clear:both;display:block;\"><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1434642356122{margin-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4>SOLAR WIND &amp; MAGNETIC STORM<\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]<div class=\"twentytwenty-container\" data-orientation=\"horizontal\" data-offset=\"0.5\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"preload-me\" src=\"https:\/\/www.procamera-app.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/ProCameraHDv2.1_MagicToolsOFF_Magnolia_960px.jpg.jpg\" width=\"719\" height=\"959\"  alt=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"preload-me\" src=\"https:\/\/www.procamera-app.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/ProCameraHDv2.1_MagicToolsON_Magnolia_960px.jpg.jpg\" width=\"719\" height=\"959\"  alt=\"\"><\/div><div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-69da16c1f0208\" data-id=\"69da16c1f0208\" data-height=\"20\" data-height-mobile=\"20\" data-height-tab=\"20\" data-height-tab-portrait=\"20\" data-height-mobile-landscape=\"20\" style=\"clear:both;display:block;\"><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]Allow yourself to be surprised: The Magic Tools are an\u00a0exciting place to experiment.

This screen provides you with a lot of information on this particular photo (dimensions, file size, when it was taken, camera settings, etc.).<br \/>\nWhen you swipe to the left, you enter map mode. That not only shows you where you stood while taking this photo, but in which direction you were facing at that time.<br \/>\nAnother swipe to the left and you enter our new and innovative Photo Compass. It tells you where you are right now, where the photo was taken, the distance between those two places as well as the direction to that spot. With a double-tap on this box\u00a0you enter full-screen mode.<br \/>\nWhat makes the Photo Compass yet\u00a0more useful, is that it even works without an internet connection. That comes in extra\u00a0handy when you&#8217;re out in the wild, where you have no network coverage, or abroad, where your mobile contract doesn&#8217;t grant you access\u00a0to mobile internet.<br \/>\nOf course you can use it for something as profane as finding your parked car \u2014 but we like to think of it as something that leads you back to beautiful places and precious memories.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-69da16c1f0b44\" data-id=\"69da16c1f0b44\" data-height=\"20\" data-height-mobile=\"20\" data-height-tab=\"20\" data-height-tab-portrait=\"20\" data-height-mobile-landscape=\"20\" style=\"clear:both;display:block;\"><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;38024&#8243; img_size=&#8221;300&#215;614&#8243; alignment=&#8221;right&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;fadeIn&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_id=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column]<div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-69da16c1f0b54\" data-id=\"69da16c1f0b54\" data-height=\"40\" data-height-mobile=\"40\" data-height-tab=\"40\" data-height-tab-portrait=\"40\" data-height-mobile-landscape=\"40\" style=\"clear:both;display:block;\"><\/div><div class=\"hr-thin style-line\" style=\"width: 100%;border-top-width: 5px;\"><\/div><div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-69da16c1f0b76\" data-id=\"69da16c1f0b76\" data-height=\"40\" data-height-mobile=\"40\" data-height-tab=\"40\" data-height-tab-portrait=\"40\" data-height-mobile-landscape=\"40\" style=\"clear:both;display:block;\"><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_id=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1435660006197{margin-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4>IMPROVED HDR CAPTURE<\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;38056&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;fadeIn&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1435761292388{margin-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;]<div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-69da16c1f0b87\" data-id=\"69da16c1f0b87\" data-height=\"20\" data-height-mobile=\"30\" data-height-tab=\"30\" data-height-tab-portrait=\"30\" data-height-mobile-landscape=\"30\" style=\"clear:both;display:block;\"><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]The renowned vividHDR technology got even better: The already <strong>short processing time<\/strong> has been further reduced, and we furthermore introduced an <strong>auto-save option<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Under Settings &gt; HDR Settings you can activate the auto-save option for HDR captures, which omits the preview of your HDR capture where you\u00a0swipe through the different HDR presets.
