Nikon D5300 - Manual (Page 116)

96 P, S, A, and M Modes
High Dynamic Range (HDR)
High Dynamic Range (HDR) combines two exposures to form a single image that
captures a wide range of tones from shadows to highlights, even with high-contrast
subjects. HDR is most effective when used with
L (Matrix metering) (0 90). It can
not be used to record NEF (RAW) images. While HDR is in effect, the flash can not be
used and continuous shooting is not available.
