All the controls you'd expect: exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, whites and blacks; temperature, tint, vibrance and saturation; sharpening, clarity and tone curve; color grading and HSL; plus vignette, grain and faded blacks. Edits preview instantly, and you can undo or redo any change. ### What export formats are supported? JPEG, PNG, TIFF (8-bit and 16-bit) and HEIF.
