"Clarity" is a subset of "Sharpness", but one that increases or decreases the difference
in brightness among ten neighboring pixels. As a result, increasing clarity brings
out larger details, making portrait subjects more dignified or landscapes more dramatic.
Reducing clarity has a softening effect similar to a soft-focus lens for softer, gentler
portraits and brighter, lighter, snapshot-style landscapes. Choose a setting according
to your creative intent.
01. Select a Picture Control.
Highlight the desired Picture Control in

Press the multi selector up or down to highlight
"Clarity" and press the multi selector left or right to choose a value in increments
of 1, or rotate the sub-command dial to choose a value in increments of 0.25. Repeat
this step until all settings have been adjusted, or select a preset combination of
settings by using the multi selector to choose Quick adjust.
