1. Re: Understanding "target colors & clipping"

Photoshop Help | Making quick tonal adjustments
Quote:
To specify how much to clip black and white pixels, enter percentages in the Clip text boxes. A value between 0.0% and 1% is recommended.
By default, Photoshop clips the black and white pixels by 0.1%—that is, it ignores the first 0.1% of either extreme when identifying the lightest and darkest pixels in the image. Because of the better output quality of modern scanners and digital cameras, these default clipping percentages might be too high.
You seem to be mixing absolute numbers and percentages.
