  • Strong adjustments can clip shadow or highlight detail to pure black or white.
  • Global sliders cannot selectively correct one region or recover sensor data missing from the JPG.
  • JPG output is flattened and re-encoded, so repeated saves can introduce additional compression artifacts.

Common questions

JPG Brightness & Contrast FAQ

Does Adjust JPG Brightness & Contrast upload my image?

No. Decoding, canvas processing, previewing, and export happen in the current browser session.

Does the downloaded file replace the original?

No. The tool creates a separate download; the source file on your device is not modified.

Will metadata remain in the result?

Canvas export normally omits camera EXIF and most ancillary metadata. Keep the original if those records matter.
