Subject: Contrast Node? Looking for node to control image contrast.

The HueSaturationValue node is nice but washes out contrast. Anyone play or find a way to control contrast??? Any ideas? Am I missing an obvious node?

"contrast" can mean slightly different things in different contexts, and I know that some high-contrast effects can be achieved by modifying what some software calls "gamma". It may be that one of the colour math nodes could be set to get what you want -- some sort of multiplication by a non-linear function.

Yeah. I wish I knew more about the math functions.

"Post filter types"? You mean some of the nodes? Which ones did you have in mind?

The post filter question was in regards to anti-aliasing styles, seperate from the original question about using nodesto control image contrast

Oh OK. The manual has a reasonable description (p348). Stewer has some info at his site too (I don't have the URL handy though).

This would be an example of using the gain function to change contrast (change the number in the math node to set contrast - try values between 0 and 1).

This setup is for gamma correction - change Value_1 of Math_Functions_2 to set the gamma value.
