The HSV Equalizer (Hue, Saturation and Value) works in the
HSV color space. Use it to selectively
change colors, e.g. make the sky more dramatic by making it somewhat
darker or more saturated without touching other colors. It can be very
useful for correcting skin tones as well. ‘Incorrect’ use may produce
effects resembling the analogue cross-processing technique. When used
for black-and-white, be sure that the raw is desaturated by setting the
Chromaticity slider in the
Lab Adjustments tool to -100, or by
enabling the Black-and-White tool. The
HSV Equalizer does not work when the raw file is desaturated by
setting Saturation in the
Exposure tool to -100.
