What does the Platinum Tone effect change?

Platinum Tone builds a platinum gray and softly luminous white grade across shadows and midtones, while preserving highlight separation and the recognizable structure of the original photo. The strength control determines how much of that treatment replaces the unedited appearance.

Which photos work best with Platinum Tone?

Choose Platinum Tone for product images that need a unified palette, social posts prepared as a coordinated series, or portrait color grading when the source has clear detail and balanced exposure. Start with a lighter setting if it contains severely clipped channels, color-critical documentation, or images where an exact product color must remain unchanged.
