"blacks", white point, black point

[pierods]

What is the photoshop equivalent of the "Blacks" slider in LR?

And conversely, what is the LR equivalent of Photoshop's white point and black point?

Thanks!

I may be misunderstanding you (or showing my lack of knowledge of PS!), but as I understand it you use Exposure to set your white point, and Blacks to set your black point. If you hold down "Alt" while dragging the slider, you'll see when the whites (for Exposure) or blacks (for Blacks) begin to clip, so you can set it below the clip point (if in fact you want it to go that close). You'd then use Brightness (though I've heard people suggest against this in favour of the tone curve) or the tone curve to adjust the brightness of the midtones.

Hope that's of some help.

exactly on the spot, thanks!

This should be organized in a table:

PS Levels vs Lightroom
Black Slider = Blacks
White Slider = Exposure
Middle slider = Brightness
