Out of the shadows
The interplay of highlights and shadows is the soul of photography. Now Sony
helps you make the most of it.
Professional photographers carefully avoid exposure
mistakes like "blown out" highlights and "crushed"
shadow detail. But sometimes, back-lighting, intense
highlights and other tricky situations make these problems hard to
avoid. Until now. A Sony function called Dynamic Range Optimizer
(DRO) preserves highlight and shadow detail, for beautifully exposed
images that are far less like snapshots, far more like what the human
eye actually sees. DRO is a bit of digital wizardry made possible by
Sony's exclusive BIONZ
processor.

by lost detail in both the highlights and
shadows. The improvement with Sony's
DRO (right) is plain to see. (Sample photos
for illustration purposes.)
