Active D-Lighting Active D-Lighting, available only for cameras that provide this functionality within the camera itself, was designed for photographing subjects where it is difficult to capture detail in both highlights and shadows. If Active DLighting is enabled ion the camera when a photograph is taken, the image will be underexposed to preserver highlight information. If that image is later processed in Capture NX 2, Active D-Lighting will be applied to brighten the shadows and create the appropriate levels of tonality throughout the image, resulting in an image in which details are present in both highlights and shadows. This functionality is provided in addition to the D-Lighting functionality found in the Adjust menu. You can use the provided pull-down menu to modify the amount of Active D-Lighting applied to your image. Choose from the following options: ❏ Unchanged This option reverts back to the setting used within the camera when the image was captured. ❏ Off This option prevents any Active D-Lighting from being applied to the image. ❏ Low This option applies a low level of Active D-Lighting to the image and is recommended for images shot with very high ISO. ❏ Normal This option applies a moderate level of Active D-Lighting to the image and is recommended for the majority of images. ❏ High This option applies a high level of Active D-Lighting to the image and is recommended for images shot with low ISO. 136 Chapter 15 - Edit List | Develop Section
