Active D-Lighting - Nikon Z 8 Reference Manual

Active D‑Lighting
Preserve details in highlights and shadows, creating pictures 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. Active D-Lighting is most effective when
used with matrix metering.
