Preserving Detail in
Highlights and Shadows
(Active D-Lighting)
Active D-Lighting preserves details in highlights and shadows,
creating photographs with natural contrast.
Use for high contrast
scenes, for example when photographing brightly lit outdoor
scenery through a door or window or taking pictures of shaded
subjects on a sunny day.
It is most effective when used with matrix
metering (0 85).
Active D-Lighting: X Off Active D-Lighting: Y Auto
A “Active D-Lighting” Versus “D-Lighting”
The Active D-Lighting option in the shooting menu adjusts exposure
before shooting to optimize the dynamic range, while the D-Lighting
option in the retouch menu (0 200) brightens shadows in images after
shooting.
