[QUOTE="Skytalker, post: 182720, member: 15613"] ADL changes the behavior of Matrix metering and as ADL is turned up the camera decreases the exposure value (EV); Normal ADL decreased the EV by 1/3 of a stop and High ADL decreased the EV by 2/3 of a stop. [B] This explains the widely reported increase in noise using ADL,[/B] as it is attempting to preserve highlights by essentially underexposing and correspondingly raising shadows. So it has an impact both on RAW/TIF/Jpeg, whatever format you shoot. May I suggest you do some tests with ADL=OFF and try to expose to the right (to the plus) ? [/QUOTE]
