ACTIVE D-LIGHTING

Get one step closer to beauty as you see it.

If you could capture minute details of light and shadow in high contrast environment, you would have more opportunities to capture remarkable images without disappointing.
Nikon's Active D-Lighting optimizes the balance of high contrast scenes to restore details often lost under strong lighting, allowing you to capture scenes with optimal results.
Matrix metering settings enable you to adjust the exposure to produce natural results for every situation and every subject. By controlling overexposure and preserving subtle features of underexposed areas, Active D-Lighting will create well-balanced results.
