Processing Photos Shot Using The "Hlg" Tone Mode - Nikon Z 8 Reference Manual

Processing Photos Shot Using the "HLG" Tone
Mode
Applying RAW processing to photos shot with [HLG] selected for tone mode creates HEIF copies.
NEF (RAW) pictures taken with [HLG] selected for tone mode can also be saved in JPEG format
( 258). Note, however, that the JPEG copies may exhibit more "noise" in the form of randomly-
0
spaced bright pixels, fog, or lines than do JPEG copies created from NEF (RAW) pictures taken with
[SDR] selected for tone mode.
