8: G Shooting Backlit Scenes - Canon EOS 6D Mark II Mode D'emploi

8: G Shooting Backlit Scenes

When shooting a scene having both the bright and dark areas, use the
<G> (HDR Backlight Control) mode. When you take one picture in this
mode, three consecutive shots are taken at different exposures. This
results in one image, with a wide tonal range, that has minimized the
clipped shadows caused by backlighting.
* HDR stands for High Dynamic Range.
Shooting Tips
Hold the camera firmly.
During shooting, hold the camera firmly and steadily. In this mode,
three shots are aligned and merged into a single image. However, if
there is significant misalignment in any of the three shots due to
camera shake, they may not align properly in the final image.
