In order to automate this process one could think of Black Level as the counterpart to the overexposure. The goal is to have the Black Level set at such value as to ensure that there are no more than specified overexposure pixel count that are pitch black. | In order to automate this process one could think of Black Level as the counterpart to the overexposure.
