# Bias

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page documents the **Bias node** of the Redshift renderer in **Cinema 4D**. It bends values along Ken Perlin's bias curve — a one-parameter way to push mask mid-tones brighter or darker, similar to a gamma tweak.

Returns a curved bias of *Input* by *Bias*, using the following Ken Perlin formula: pow(*Input*, log(*Bias*)/log(0.5)).
