Using the “Logarithmic” opon concentrates the histogram at the low end of the scale, providing a high con-
trast image with lile dynamic image. It tends to overall darken the imaeg, and is useful for increasing contrast
when your sample image is very light.
The “Exponenal” opon concentrates the histogram at the high end of the scale, and is useful for increasing
contrast in a very dark image.
Edge Enhance - The “Edge Enhance” set of lters are designed to provide addonal contrast for the edges of a
sample, rather than enhancing the total image overall. These are best used for when the shape of your sample
is what is being reviewed, moreso than overall composion.
Sobel - This lter enahnces just the principal edges in an image by applying a mathemacal formula to a 3x3
pixel neighborhood to locate and highlight edges.
Roberts - This lter enhances ne edges in an image by applying a mathemacal formula upon a 4x4 pixel
neighborhood to produce its eect. The upper le pixel in the neighborhood is the one that is replaced.
Sculp - The “Sculp” lter applies a sculpted eect on the image, as if it was carved out of a material.
Horizontal - The “Horizontal” lter detects and emphasizes horizontal edges.
Vercal - The “Vercal” lter detects and emphasizes vercal edges.
