Thanks. I've suspected something like this for a while now. Even in earlier versions of Lightroom the Curves control didn't behave the way a real Curves adjustment would: Adding a control point in the center and moving it up or down often drives the extremes into clipping, which shouldn't be possible with a real Curves tool. -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
