Underexposure and overexposure are two of the most common mistakes when taking photos. But don't consider images which suffer from them as completely destroyed! You can easily improve the way they look by adjusting their brightness and contrast with reaConverter.
This powerful batch image editor & converter makes the process really easy and quick.
Open the images you intend to correct by adding them one by one, or by selecting an entire folder.
Go to the Edit images tab, press Add action → Color Adjustments → Brightness / Contrast.
Here you can easily adjust the quantity of light that appears in your image and check the result in real time by ticking the Preview button.
In the Saving options tab, you can opt for locating the output images in the same folder as the input ones, in a subfolder or in a new location altogether. Alternatively, you can save them online, in your Dropbox, Google Drive or Box.com account, among others. After making this choice, decide if you want to preserve the initial format of the images or convert them to a new one. JPG, PNG, TIF and BMP are just some of the available extensions, together with many other less known formats.
Finally, press the Start button and watch the dialogue to see how your files are being edited.
