Dynamic Range Expansion
By using the advanced weighting technique, PhotoAcute Studio is able to restore shadows and clipped highlights from the photographs taken in exposure-bracketing mode. It produces the image that could only be taken with the camera that had much wider dynamic range.
This feature becomes especially handy for objects photographed on back-lit background (e.g. window, alight snow, direct sunlight), or scenes that have important details in the shadow.

Usage: Dynamic range expansion is turned on/off by ticking the corresponding checkbox in the processing options dialog. It is recommended to use brightness equalization in conjunction with this mode.
