Hi,

Am I right when I think that the shadow-highligth filter modify the shadows (and … the highlights ) . . . of the shadowed parts of an image?

Thanks for your attention.

as with all things PS just try it out
this filter is most useful for images with dark areas that you need to bring up without making complex selections and doing it by curves

If you have ever made a picture with the subject in foreground lit in full sun,
where the background you saw with your eye had nice features but looks very black on the capture,
that is a good one to use for your experiment.

as burnt (over-exposed) highlight areas usually have no pixels or image to bring out, it is less successful for that, but the sliders give a LOT of variations so use them and see what they do is best

Highlight detail is best by prevention of it in capture, pay attention to that histogram in your camera

Hi Jean,
First I am assuming that by filter you mean adjustment. If this is correct then I found this article very helpful. Here is the first of four parts. The Shadow/Highlight adjustment is covered in part two.

Yes I tried it and made a graysscale to test it.
