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 (0 109).
Active D-Lighting off Active D-Lighting: YAuto
D “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 optimizes
dynamic range in images after shooting.
