(standard exposure, underexposure, and then overexposure) each time
you shoot. You can adjust the amount of underexposure and overexposure
(relative to standard exposure) from –2 to +2 stops in 1/3-stop increments.

Correcting Image Brightness (i-Contrast)
Before shooting, excessively bright or dark image areas (such as faces or
backgrounds) can be detected and automatically adjusted to the optimal
brightness.
To avoid washed-out highlights, specify Dynamic Range Correction. To
preserve image detail in shadows, specify Shadow Correct.
•
Under some shooting conditions, correction may be inaccurate or
may cause images to appear grainy.
• You can also correct existing images ( = 126 ).
• You can customize camera operation so that turning the <
y> ring adjusts DR
Correction or Shadow Correct settings ( = 96 ).
