Taking Photographs-Optimizing Images Adjusting Contrast: Tone Comp. As photographs are saved to the memory card, they are processed to adjust the distribution of tones in the image, enhancing contrast. Tone compensation is performed by means of tone curves that define the relationship between the distribution of tones in the original image and the compensated result. The Tone comp. menu controls the type of curve used. Option Description Auto (default) Camera automatically optimizes contrast by selecting appropriate curve. Curve varies from shot to shot, even in scenes of same type; to take multiple shots with same curve, choose different setting. For best results, use type G or D lens. Normal Camera uses same standard curve for all images. Suited to most scenes, whether dark or bright. Produces "softer" images. Prevents highlights on portrait Low contrast subjects from being "washed out" in direct sunlight. Medium low Slightly less contrast than Normal. Medium high Slightly more contrast than Normal. Preserves detail in misty landscapes and other low-contrast High contrast subjects. Custom Custom curve can be created in Nikon Capture 4 version 4.1 or later (available separately) and downloaded to camera. Choose Custom to select this user-defined curve. If no custom curve has been created, this option is equivalent to Normal. 58
