High Dynamic Range (Hdr) - Nikon D500 User Manual

High Dynamic Range (HDR)

Used with high-contrast subjects, High Dynamic Range (HDR)
preserves details in highlights and shadows by combining two
shots taken at different exposures. HDR is most effective when
used with matrix metering (0 128; with spot or center-weighted
metering and a non-CPU lens, an exposure differential of Auto is
equivalent to about 2 EV). It can not be used to record NEF
(RAW) images. Flash lighting (0 196), bracketing (0 146),
multiple exposure (0 236), and time lapse (0 74) can not be
used while HDR is in effect and shutter speeds of A and %
are not available.
