HDR
When shooting portraits against a bright background, use HDR, short for High Dynamic Range, to
capture your subject more vividly. HDR brings out the details of both highlights and shadows, even
in high contrast lighting.
HDR works best when your subject is steady. The camera takes multiple shots at different
exposure levels and combines them into one enhanced photo.
