Customizing a Levels adjustment

In this movie I'll show you how to customize your Levels Adjustment to get…even better results.…I'm currently looking at the auto-adjusted version of the image.…Notice down here below the histogram, we have three triangles. The first one…represents the Black point, the last one represents the White point, and the…middle one, the gray one, is the Gamma value.…I'll show you how to modify the Black and White points in this movie, and then…in the next movie, we'll deal with the Gamma value.…Now notice down here at the bottom, there is this option that allows us to…reset the adjustments to their defaults.…

I'm going to go ahead and click on that, so that we can see the unadjusted image.…Notice these values below the triangles, they correspond to each one of the points here.…So by default, the Black point is 0, which is the value for Black, and the…White point is 255, which is the value for White.…I'll go ahead and once again click on the Auto button, so that you can see…those values update.…Now we're seeing the White point is set to 229 and the Black point is set to 4.…
