Color correction is primarily aimed at making color more accurate, but accurate color can often look a bit “flat” or bland. The color enhancement filter and the color correction filter complement one another. Photo Ninja also includes some builtin color “styles” that can serve as the basis for adjustment. This generally yields more intuitive and natural looking results. ![]() Photo Ninja applies color enhancements in a perceptual color space instead of in a mathematically arbitrary HSV-type color space. For instance, you can darken the sky, increase saturation of foliage, and alter skin tones. The filter allows targeted adjustment of specific hue ranges. “The color enhancement filter can be used to alter the hue, intensity, and lightness of colors in an image. It gives you a taste of how clear and concise their help is: I’ll let Ninja’s popup help text explain this one. It gave the image some ‘pop’ without introducing any nasty artefacts or haloing.įor this image I added some shadow recovery and, again, found Ninja to do a really decent job, without introducing any nastiness into the image. I found Ninja’s Detail setting to be excellent – not just on this image but on everything I threw at it. NIK Viveza has a Structure tool that does much the same thing. RAW images are usually a little ‘flat’ prior to processing and most tools have some way of clarifying the image. I think this option is one of the key strengths of Ninja. Of particular interest is the ‘Detail’ slider. I found the result to be excellent and left these settings alone. The Smart Lighting option analyses the image and automatically sets the options below for you. I found this to be a really rich set of options, and the ones shown here are set by the ‘Scenic Enhanced’ preset. The Help text is clear and concise and you can keep editing the image with it displayed. Notice the Help button… Clicking this pops up a Help screen explaining the options you are currently using. You can use this option to lessen this if you don’t like its appearance. Ninja’s pre-processing has already recovered some Highlight details. The Color Recovery option is interesting. You can set the White Balance manually using the sliders or by clicking a grey area of the image. The Automatic setting gives a very nicely balanced image, but for this one I left it on the From Camera setting as that looked a little warmer and more pleasing to me. For this image, I chose ‘Scenic Enhanced’ as the starting point for my efforts. Ninja, however, comes with just a handful of presets that seem to have been created by someone who actually knows what a photo should look like rather than a set of ‘look how dreadful we can make your image appear’ options. Usually! So many presets lead to horribly unnatural images that I really don’t like. Ninja works with you – you can create your own presets and select them from here, or use its own built in ones. For example, certain S8 models have a model number of SM-G950U, whereas some S9s have a model number of SM-G960U.It’s worth noting the innocent little buttons – Presets and Defaults. Every model that falls into that category (same colour, etc.) will have the same model number. ![]() The number will vary depending on the year the product was released, its colour, the carrier, and some other factors. Both types of numbers can help network providers track down a device that has been stolen or lost.įinally, a model number is a specific number that applies to a range of products (i.e., the Note10, Tab S4, etc.). They are used at an international or global level, not just by manufacturers. These two numbers are different from a serial number. Depending on the carrier, your device will have either an IMEI or MEID. On the other hand, an IMEI or MEID is only used for phones or other communication devices. Serial numbers make it easier for the makers to organize and keep track of their products. For example, your phone's serial number will be different from every other phone Samsung has made. The serial number is a unique number assigned by the manufacturer (like Samsung) to help identify an individual device, like a phone, tablet, TV, and so on. A serial number and IMEI are similar, but have some differences.
