High Dynamic Range (HDR)

Used with high-contrast subjects, High Dynamic Range (HDR)
preserves details in highlights and shadows by combining two
shots taken at different exposures.
HDR is most effective when
used with matrix metering (0123; with other metering methods
and a non-CPU lens, an exposure differential of Auto is equivalent
to about 2 EV).
It can not be used to record NEF (RAW) images.
Movie recording (063), flash lighting (0191), bracketing
(0139), multiple exposure (0210), and time-lapse photography
(0223) can not be used while HDR is in effect and a shutter speed
of A is not available.
