Greyscale imageExample of special effects on photos: Effect Grayscale, Method Grayscale: This is a greyscale image obtained by applying the special effect "grayscale image" to the original image at bottom with Zoner-Photo-Studio. The method is grayscale. With Zoner Photo Studio it is possible to obtain a few different greyscale images of a photo. The result may vary according to the selected method. Available methods include grayscale, desaturation, advanced, average of channels and maximum of channels.  Effect Grayscale, Method Desaturation: This is a greyscale image obtained by applying the special effect "grayscale image" to the original image at bottom with Zoner-Photo-Studio. The method is desaturation, that means removing the color saturation information of the color photo.  Effect Grayscale, Method Advanced: This is a greyscale image obtained by applying the special effect "grayscale image" to the original image at bottom with Zoner-Photo-Studio. The method is advanced, which is probably a kind of mix of the other methods.  Effect Grayscale, Method Average channels: This is a greyscale image obtained by applying the special effect "grayscale image" to the original image at bottom with Zoner-Photo-Studio. The method is average of RGB channels, what means that behind the scene following operation is done: - splitting the color photo into 3 greyscale images that represent the red component, the green component and the blue component of the original color photo. - taking, pixel by pixel, the grey value of each one of these 3 (R,G and B) images and calculating the mean value.  Effect Grayscale, Method Maximum channels: This is a greyscale image obtained by applying the special effect "grayscale image" to the original image at bottom with Zoner-Photo-Studio. The method is maximum of RGB channels, what means that behind the scene following operation is done: - splitting the color photo into 3 greyscale images that represent the red component, the green component and the blue component of the original color photo. - taking, pixel by pixel, the lightest grey value of each one of these 3 (R,G and B) images.  This is the original color photo. |
