Movies

Before shooting, excessively bright or dark image areas (such as faces or

backgrounds) can be detected and automatically adjusted to the optimal

brightness.

To avoid washed-out highlights, specify Dynamic Range Correction.

To preserve image detail in shadows, specify Shadow Correct.

Under some shooting conditions, correction may be inaccurate or
may cause images to appear grainy.
