Preserving Detail in Highlights and
Shadows
Active D-Lighting
When On is selected, the camera automatically adjusts Active D-Lighting during
shooting to preserve details in highlights and shadows, creating photographs with
natural contrast.
Use for high contrast scenes, for example when photographing
brightly lit outdoor scenery through a door or window or taking pictures of shaded
subjects on a sunny day.
It is most effective when used with L Matrix metering
(0 60).
