Re: [FYI] Lab Blender minor update
said by pog  :The Lab "amplify" sliders try to replicate some of the errors, though.  Errors, or not, I also liked the results! Well, I'm saving the "old" one, too, because I really like the results using it at the defaults. And will continue to explore the new one because choices are good (so the shrink tells me). The more info you can give about what to use when, the better for this simple-minded amateur.

Heh... part of the difference had to do with me correcting some basic math problems that existed in the first. The Lab "amplify" sliders try to replicate some of the errors, though. Errors, or not, I also liked the results!
The reason for so many sliders/numbers is that I wrote this, in part, to be a learning tool for myself... my main question was how far can I go and how far does the resulting data go outside the working space. The limitations of RGB become quite clear rather quickly... for eg, the brightest white (R=255, G=255, B=255) carries a high luminance, obviously. However, what if you want red at the same luminance? You can't... R=255 is the max.

So is there any way in which using this one at default settings differs from the "old" Lab Overlayer (can't say thanks enough for that one)? Is the difference just that this one is more 'tweakable' or is there a fundamental change in even the results with the default settings?
LATER EDIT: Well, contrary to my first expectations, trying out the new one set at the defaults gives different results from using the lab overlayer one on the same photo, also set at defaults. Interesting; this makes me think this actually has different use than the "old" lab overlayer? |
