ffmpeg Color Correction: Gamma, Brightness and Saturation How is ffmpeg used with a video filter circa 2017 to adjust gamma/contrast, brightness and saturation?

Stack Exchange resources that are a few years old point to the filter mp=eq2=, but it seems to be deprecated1 and replaced with just eq=. The link does not reveal a good understanding of the setting ranges, however.

How is eq= (or equivalent filters) used? E.g., what is the format and appropriate settings/ranges?

For my personal usage, I'd like to keep gamma where it is, while increasing brightness and saturation a fair bit, for a dark video.

These settings helped me to lighten up a dark video using the filter eq, with some added saturation.
Syntax:

filtername=option1=value1:option2=value2:option3=value3... These can be in any order.

Filter ranges and all options:
https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html#eq
Preview:
ffplay -vf eq=brightness=0.06:saturation=2 INPUT.MOV
Render:
ffmpeg -i INPUT.MOV -vf eq=brightness=0.06:saturation=2 -c:a copy OUTPUT.MOV 

Alternative filters: curves and pp.
