High Dynamic Range (HDR)
High Dynamic Range (HDR) combines two exposures to form a single image that
captures a wide range of tones from shadows to highlights, even with high-contrast
subjects.
HDR is most effective when used with L (Matrix metering) (0 62; with
other metering methods, a setting of v Auto is equivalent to T Normal).
It can
not be used to record NEF (RAW) images.
The flash can not be used while HDR is in
effect.
