As with clip highlights this method is a good option for naturally desaturated objects.

This method works fairly well with a high-contrast base curve, which renders highlights desaturated. The reconstructed highlights will still be monochrome, but brighter and with more detail than with “clip highlights”. reconstruct in LCh Analyse each pixel with at least one clipped channel and attempt to correct the clipped pixel (in LCh color space) using the values of the other (3 for Bayer or 8 for X-Trans) pixels in the affected sensor block. This method is most useful in cases where clipped highlights occur in naturally desaturated objects (e.g. Three methods of reconstruction are available: clip highlights Clamp all pixels to the white level (i.e. For example pixels with both green and blue channels clipped will appear to be red without any highlight reconstruction. If these pixels are left partially clipped it can result in unrealistic colors appearing in the image.

Attempt to reconstruct color information for pixels that are clipped in one or more RGB channel.
