[QUOTE="crycocyon, post: 739007, member: 13076"] Yes and dynamic range is a property of the sensor (the ratio of light or saturated pixel wells to dark or minimal intensity value, or noise floor). More expensive cameras have sensors with higher dynamic range, for example the Nikon D850 has 14.8 stops of dynamic range (which is very good for a DSLR). The Nikon D3500 has at ISO100 a maximum of 11.5 stops of dynamic range (averages around 10 stops across the ISO range), which is also very respectable. So if you are keeping track of the light and dark areas of the scene either visually or with a histogram, you can try to avoid compositions with too much contrast/highlights. A simple example is composing a landscape with the sky in view. You can include less of the sky to get a better balance of light and dark (ie: minimizing bright areas that might saturate the sensor).
