What does the Saturation Boost effect change?

Saturation Boost adjusts the photo's color balance and chroma distribution, concentrating the correction where it is useful while avoiding unnecessary structural changes. The strength control determines how much of that treatment replaces the unedited appearance.

Which photos work best with Saturation Boost?

Choose Saturation Boost for album artwork and editorial covers, landscapes with clear shadow and highlight separation, or travel photographs with mixed colors 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.
