HP Photosmart R717 User Manual page 65

You can use Adaptive Lighting with or without flash, but it is
not recommended as a replacement for flash. Unlike the
flash, Adaptive Lighting does not affect exposure settings, so
brightened areas may appear noisy or grainy, and indoor or
night images may be blurry if taken without a flash or a
tripod.
1. In the Capture Menu (page 61),
select Adaptive Lighting.
2. In the Adaptive Lighting sub-
menu, use the
highlight a setting.
3. Press the
setting and return to the Capture
Menu.
The following table explains the settings in more detail:
Setting Description
Off The camera will process the image as normal. This is the
default setting.
Low The camera will gently brighten the dark regions of the
image without changing brightly-lit areas.
High The camera will greatly brighten the dark regions of the
image without changing brightly lit areas significantly.
If the new setting is anything other than the default Off
setting, the icon for the setting will appear in the Live View
screen.
Except in My Mode (page 55), Adaptive Lighting remains in
effect until it is changed again, even when you turn the
camera off.
