I’d like to arbitrarily compress/expand different areas of dynamic range. Best explained with the histogram.
Let’s say I’d like to expand the range 0-150 to span 0-200, and conversely, compress the dynamic range 150-255 into 200-255.
In other words, imagine a marker at 150. I’d like to be able to move that marker to 200 expanding/compressing relevant portions of dynamic range as needed.
In a (weird, inverse) way the gamma slider in Levels does that, but not only is it "reverse logic" but it’s limited to a single point and it’s also a fixed point.
I’ve been playing around with curves with some success but was just wondering if anyone else has any thoughts on this.
