Relationship between sharpness saturation of black and white highlights in ps

In the CR filter or LR of PS, the exposure interface integrates the main exposure adjustment functions, which is the most commonly used functional interface for the initial adjustment of RAW.

Generally speaking, each function has the following functions:

Color temperature: You can make the tone of a photo cooler or warmer to compensate for the influence of the ambient color temperature. For example, when the ambient light is cold on a cloudy day, you can move the slider to the right appropriately to offset the blue component in the photo.

Tone: left and right adjustment can make the photo appear magenta or green, which is generally used to adjust the white balance with the color temperature.

Exposure: Adjust the brightness of photos. This brightness is different from the simple software adjustment of "brightness". It is as realistic as the exposure effect on the camera.

Highlight: used to adjust the highlight areas in photos, such as the overexposed sky, which can reduce the exposure and make "disappeared" clouds appear. Of course, how much overexposed content can be restored depends on the tolerance of the photo, and overexposed content cannot be restored.

Shadow: used to adjust dark areas in photos, such as underexposed areas, to show dark details. However, it should be noted that dark highlights usually bring noise and should be adjusted appropriately.

White: used to adjust the brightest part of the photo, similar to highlights, but with a smaller range.

Black: Used to adjust the darkest part of a photo, similar to a shadow, but with a smaller range.

Sharpness: Enhance contrast and reduce highlights. When it is strong, it feels like an HDR photo, but it has nothing to do with the real "sharpness". It can't make blurred photos clear.

Natural saturation and saturation: natural saturation is "softer" than saturation adjustment, and the effect is not as strong as saturation to avoid excessive loss.
