HDR

HDR (High Dynamic Range) helps you get great shots in high-contrast situations. iPad takes multiple photos in rapid succession, at different exposure settings—and blends them together. The resulting photo has better detail in the bright and midtone areas.

Use HDR. (iSight camera on iPad 3rd generation or later) Tap HDR. For best results, keep iPad steady and avoid subject motion.

Keep the normal photo and the HDR version. Go to Settings > Photos & Camera > Keep Normal Photo. Both the normal and HDR versions of the photo appear in Photos. HDR versions of photos in your albums are marked with “HDR” in the corner.
