waveform, rgb parade and vectorscope
the scope in the left sidebar used to be a histogram and nothing else. it now has four tabs, and each one updates as you grade.
scopes
- wave: a waveform monitor. left of the scope is left of the image, higher is brighter, with lines at 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100%
- parade: the waveform split into red, green and blue. level the bottoms of the three for neutral shadows, the tops for neutral highlights
- vector: a vectorscope with a skin tone line. skin of every complexion sits near it under neutral light
- hist: the histogram, as before
- the expand button opens any of them larger, over the canvas
scopes are free, with or without an account. how to read them.
