Backlighting

The method used to capture details in shaded areas of back-lit subjects depends on the option selected for HDR in the shoot- ing menu (0 117).

	Details in highlights and shadows are preserved using HDR (high
	dynamic range); Z appears in the display. Each time the shutter-
	release button is fully pressed, the camera takes two shots in quick
	succession and combines them to preserve details in highlights
	and shadows in high-contrast scenes; the built-in flash does not
	fire. While the shots are combined, a message will be displayed and
	the shutter release will be disabled. The final photograph will be
On	displayed when processing is complete.

	The flash fires to “fill in” (illuminate) shadows in back-lit subjects.

	pressed, and the flash fires with each shot.

DFraming HDR Photographs

The edges of the image will be cropped out. The desired results may not be achieved if the camera or subject moves during shooting. Depending on the scene, shading may be uneven and shadows may appear around bright objects or halos around dark objects. If the cam- era is unable to successfully combine the two images, a single image will be recorded at normal exposure and Active D-Lighting (0 126) will be applied.
