Luma Shifter 1.0.0 for Mac
Mac UtilitiesBrightness carries a lot of mood in a shot, and shifting where the light and dark areas sit can change footage in striking ways. Luma Shifter is a small plugin for Adobe video apps that works directly on the luma of an image, the brightness information, so you can remap tones for stylised looks or quick corrections. It is the kind of focused tool an editor reaches for when a clip needs its shadows lifted, its highlights rolled off, or a bold tonal twist. Updated Aug 19, 2026.

FAQs
What is luma?
Luma is the brightness part of an image, separate from its colour. Shifting luma changes how light or dark areas appear without directly pushing the colours around.
Is it a full colour grading tool?
No. It is a focused tonal tool. Many editors use it alongside their normal grading tools when a shot needs a specific brightness shift or a stylised twist.
