Shooting High-Contrast Scenes (High Dynamic Range); Adding Artistic Effects - Canon EOS M3 User Manual

Shooting High-Contrast Scenes (High Dynamic
Range)
Three consecutive images are captured at different brightness levels
each time you shoot, and the camera combines image areas with optimal
brightness to create a single image. This mode can reduce the washed-
out highlights and loss of detail in shadows that tend to occur in high-
contrast shots.
