ZoneMapper: Finding zones
The ZoneMapper tool works with the ZoneFinder: as you move the mouse over the zones in a ZoneMapper, the corresponding zones in the ZoneFinder highlight in yellow.
Using a ZoneMapper tool with the ZoneFinder allows you to find zones in your photo quickly in order to make adjustments.
For example, you can quickly find both the white and black points in your photo allowing you to fix the exposure and get deeper blacks.
To find zones on your photo:
- Click the ZoneMapper tool button in the tool bar. (A new ZoneMapper tool will appear at the top of the tool stack.)
- Move the mouse over the zones in the ZoneMapper. (As you do so, the corresponding zones in the ZoneFinder will highlight.)
