About Highlight tone priority
- If [1:Enable] is set, highlight detail will be improved. The dynamic range is expanded from the standard 18% gray to bright highlights. The gradation between the grays and highlights becomes smoother.
- With setting [1:Enable], noise may become slightly more pronounced than usual.
