Hello Folks,

Would someone be able to describe for the the difference between clarity and detail refinement in the develop persona.  The effects are quite distinctive from each other but I can't determine what each is doing differently and when to use one versus the other, or in tandem.

Thanks!

  • Clarity enhances local contrast, resulting in sharpening.
  • Detail Refinement sharpens the edges in images. In AP it is the same as the Unsharp Mask in the Photo Persona>Live Filters

One way to see the difference is to really exaggerate the settings. You'll see how each affects the images.
