[QUOTE="Joseph Bautsch, post: 30841, member: 654"] By the book active D- lighting is used for: "Active D-Lighting preserves details in highlights and shadows, creating photographs with natural contrast. Use for high contrast scenes, for example when photographing brightly lit outdoor scenery through a door or window or taking pictures of shaded subjects on a sunny day." Shooting early to mid-afternoon means the hot (photo hot) part of the day, lots of contrast. D-lighting may be of help. Use fill flash? Yes. Turn the flash power down so that the flash is not in competition with the natural day light. "Practice" shooting with D-Lighting turned both off and on. Look for the differences and decide which you like better. You take the photo not the camera. [/QUOTE]
