C.Fn-3 Highlight tone priority

0:Disable

1:Enable

Improves the highlight detail. The dynamic range is expanded from the standard 18% gray to bright highlights. The gradation between the grays and highlights becomes smoother.

With setting 1, the Auto Lighting Optimizer (p.159) is automatically set to [Disable] and the setting cannot be changed.

With setting 1, noise (grainy image, banding, etc.) may become slightly more pronounced than with setting 0.

With setting 1, the range that can be set will be ISO 200 - 12800 (up to ISO 6400 for movies).

Also, the <A> icon will be displayed on the LCD monitor when highlight tone priority is enabled.
