High dynamic range photography is a way of expressing the entire range
from dark to bright areas by capturing multiple images with different
exposures (underexposed, properly exposed (standard), and
overexposed), and combining them into a single image.
This section explains how to set HDR Capture and p mode.
HDR Capture is available regardless of the mode dial setting (except in
some capture modes). It creates a single composite image from three
different exposures (-3 EV, standard exposure, and +3 EV).

During high dynamic range image capture, multiple images are combined
together to create a single image, so it will take more time to save an image.

•If p mode or Z (Night Scene HDR) of H mode is selected, settings for
