Active D-Lighting

Active D-Lighting, accessed via the [

Active D-Lighting

] item in

the photo or movie shooting menu, is used to preserve details
in highlights and shadows, creating pictures 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.
Active D-Lighting is most effective when [

Matrix metering

] is

selected for metering.
