High Dynamic Range (HDR)

High Dynamic Range (HDR) combines two exposures to form a single image that captures a wide range of tones from shadows to highlights, even with high-contrast subjects. HDR is most effective when used with matrix metering (0 115; with other metering methods, an exposure differential of Auto is equivalent to about 2 EV). It can not be used to record NEF (RAW) images. Movie recording (0 59), flash lighting, bracketing (0 132), multiple exposure (0 195), and time-lapse photography (0 207) can not be used while HDR is in effect and a shutter speed of Ais not available.
