Control contrast. Choose lower values to increase contrast when shooting indoors or under overcast skies, higher values to
reduce loss of detail in highlights and shadows when photographing high-contrast scenes. Higher values are recommended
for scenes that include both sunlight and deep shade, for such high-contrast subjects as sunlight on water, brightly-lit autumn
leaves, and portraits taken against a blue sky, and for white objects or people wearing white; note, however, that mottling may
appear in pictures taken at higher values.
