DYNAMIC RANGE
The contrast range of an object comprises all levels of brightness
from the brightest to the darkest point in the image. All levels of
brightness can be captured by the sensor, provided the contrast
range of the object is lower than the dynamic range of the camera.
In case of significant differences of brightness in the object (e.g.
shootings of interior spaces with bright windows in the background,
shootings with subject elements in shadow or directly lit by the sun,
landscapes with dark areas and a very bright sky), the camera with
its limited dynamic range will not be able to map the entire contrast
range of the object. Information in 'edge areas' will be lost (under
and overexposure).
