Active D-Lighting - Nikon Z 50 Reference Manual

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.
