Frequently Asked Questions
What is a vignette effect?
A vignette is a darkening or fading of the edges of an image, often creating a fade-to-black effect that draws focus to the center.
Why use vignettes in photography?
Vignettes darken image edges and can visually draw attention toward the central area of a photo.
What vignette strength should I use?
Start with 30-50% for subtle effects. Use 50-70% for moderate vignettes, or 80-100% for dramatic, pronounced effects.
Works on all photo types?
Yes! Vignettes work beautifully on portraits, landscapes, still life, and any photo type.
Can I remove vignette afterward?
No, vignettes are permanent once applied. Always keep your original image as backup.
Is the quality affected?
Applying the vignette changes image pixels and creates a processed result. Review the output if preserving source detail is important.

What the adjustment changes
A vignette changes edge brightness to emphasize the center visually; it does not detect the subject or automatically determine composition.
Tips for better results
Start with moderate settings and compare the preview with the original. Strong adjustments can intentionally reduce subtle detail or produce a more stylized appearance.
