EX Detail Crispening

From Camcorder Wiki

When Detail is on, Crispening determines how much contrast change is needed before the detail enhancement is triggered.

Negative (-) values make the image sharper by applying detail to smaller luma differences between adjacent pixels.

Positive (+) values decrease noise and make the image smoother, by only applying detail correction to higher luma differences between adjacent pixels.
