Jul 31, 2012 7:57 AM

Can anyone explain the difference between chroma and saturation?

Also, how could I change the chroma of a color in Photoshop?

Thanks!

c,

You may have a look here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colorfulness

A search in the Photoshop Helpfile will show whether there is a real distinction (in later versions) between the two, and whether it is possible to work with chroma as opposed to saturation.
