Hello,

I am trying to get to grips with CO's way of doing things, and i have some newbie questions, regarding color control which i hope you can help me with.
So far I have most of the CO's counterparts, but i having some difficulty finding whites and blacks adjustments.
These are my understandings of CO's controls:
(Lr) Exposure -> (Co) Exposure
(Lr) Contrast -> (Co) Contrast
(Lr) Highlights -> (Co) Highlights
(Lr) Shadows -> (Co) Shadows
(Lr) Whites -> (Co) Brightness?????
(Lr) Blacks -> (Co) ?????
(Lr) Clarity -> (Co) Clarity
(Lr) Vibrance -> (Co) a mix of saturation and vibrance????
(Lr) Saturation -> (Co) a mix of saturation and vibrance????

Is this understanding correct, and how do you control the blacks and whites? As exactly as in lightroom?
Or would you control that differently in Co?

Best...Jan

  Saturation in C1 is more subtle than in Lightroom - C1's saturation is somewhat like LR's vibrance. In C1, increasing saturation has less effect on colours that are already quite saturated, and more effect on those that are not. On the other hand reducing saturation works across the board, I believe.
  
  For blacks and whites, try the levels tool, which LR doesn't have.
