Understanding color adjustments

Setting

What it means
Brightness Adjusts how light or dark the video looks. Increasing the value makes the image brighter, decreasing it makes the image darker.
Contrast Changes the difference between the light and dark areas of the video. Higher values create sharper separation, lower values create a softer look.
Saturation Controls how intense the colors appear. Increasing the value makes colors more vivid, decreasing it makes them more muted.
Temperature Shifts the overall tone of the video. Increasing the value adds warmer tones, decreasing it adds cooler tones.
