| You might also want to experiment with the gamma function (as found in
your
| favourite image processing program):
|
| f=exp(gamma*(log(f)-log(500000.0)));
|
| If gamma is set to 1.0, you'll get a linear transfer. Set it lower than
1.0
| to bias in the direction you want, and higher than 1.0 to bias in the
other
| direction.
|

How does gamma work? (never seen it before)
