Color Mode & Saturation

Silkypix offers several Color Mode presets or 'flavors' that emulate popular types of film, in addition to the Standard Color or default camera setting.  These Color Modes range from monochrome to ultra-vivid and affect color rendition, saturation, contrast, and noise with one click.  With time you will develop a preference for certain ones depending on your subject matter and intent.  It is important to apply the best Color Mode before adjusting White Balance since switching to another may alter the image considerably.  Adding or removing a small amount of Saturation is usually necessary.
