"Under the Hood" & Standard Processing
Once you capture a photo, the application starts processing the RAW sensor data.
If you would like the RAW data yourself, no worries, you can save the RAW photo alone or with the processed image. While the screen has a loading page,
the application first reads the unprocessed sensor data. It then applies black level so the image doesn’t
look saturated, and applies white balance so that white looks white and not green or yellow. Once the color is correct,
the application demosaics the Bayer pattern and applies the appropriate color space conversion. Lastly, HDR is
implemented in order to get the best the best detail possible in the photo's light and dark areas.
Once the processing is complete, a view will appear similar to the one you see here. This means the processing is done,
and you now have the choice to further process the captured image in 2 methods as displayed in the top part of the image.
You may switch the processing method by simply clicking or swiping to the desired method in the segment selector. You can
always switch back to a different method, your progress will be saved (two copies of the image, one for each method).
You can also click on the reset button in the bottom left of the image if you would like to remove all editing done on
the selected method.
Currently selected is the standard method. This method applies what is commonly applied, a gamma correction. In this method,
you will be able to process the image by adjusting its gamma correction, saturation, and lightness. The saturation and lightness
are from the HSL model. Saturation is a percentage value that describes the intensity of the color. Gamma, also known as Gamma
correction, is a nonlinear operation on the luminance: (1.8-2.2 is the ideal range). Lastly, lightness is a percentage value
that describes how much light you want to give the color.
