About Wide Dynamic Range
Brighter parts of an image are white-saturated, while darker parts black-saturated, when the difference between brightness and darkness within a screen (dynamic range) is extremely great: such unfavorable conditions can be imposed when the camera is installed in a room where sunlight or strong afternoon sunshine pours through the window or the entrance on the back. However, you can obtain clear images even under such harsh conditions of great difference of brightness and darkness by using the Wide Dynamic Range mode: it can synthesize a picture in a moment of time based on both the images taken with high shutter speed (bright subject getting clearer) and with low shutter speed (dark subject getting clearer).
