HIGH-KEY ZONE MATCHING
High-key mode provides fine highlight detail on
images that consist of mainly bright areas.
Exposure, sensitivity and gradation are adjusted
in the best possible way so that the hightlights
do not bleach out.
LOW-KEY ZONE MATCHING
Low-key mode achieves a wide graduation of
shadow detail – on images that predominantly
consist of dark areas – without showing noise in
the dark areas.
The atmosphere, character and message of an
image are quintessentially influenced by the
distribution of black and white areas in the tonal
values. In classic photography the specific
subject-related use of illumination is described
as high-key and low-key photography. In high-
key images bright, finely distinguished highlight
tones dominate and soft illumination is provided.
Low-key images, consist predominantly of dark
tones and harsher light is employed, which
provides a three-dimensional feel that is rich in
contrast and shadow detail.
The zone matching mode of the Dynax 5D
optimises all camera settings for high-key or low-
key images.
