Color Wheel
 shows you the position of colors — green is across magenta, and red is
across cyan. By moving the pointer (a small dot) to a place in the color wheel, the hue of
the image is altered. For instance, if you move the pointer towards the green area of the
wheel, the image will acquire a greenish cast.

Film Type Selection bar
 allows you to select the type of film you used for your negative.
Choosing the correct film type is important in maintaining image quality, and you should
choose the film type that's indicated on the packaging that came with your film.
        The Film Type Selection box provides several choices for you to choose from. If your
type of film is not in the list but a similar film type from the same company is available,
you may choose from one of them. Very often, similar films from the same company use
identical film types. For example, Kodak 135, ASA 100, ASA 200, and ASA 400 are
grouped as the same type — ASA 100.
        If your film type is not in the selection list and you cannot find its family group, choose
Generic Negative Film
.

Exposure Correction bar
 lets you adjust the exposure of a negative.  An overexposed
negative looks dark (with the image itself in the dialog box appearing bright), while an
underexposed negative appears light (with the image itself appearing dark).
•   If your film is overexposed (image is too bright), drag the bar to the left; this will make
the image darker.
•   If your film is underexposed (image is too dark), drag to the bar to the right; this will
make the image lighter.

Saturation bar
 lets you change the intensity of the hues (colors) in your image. Use Saturation
selectively, because increasing saturation will intensify all hues in the image.
