HDR

Dynamic range expansion

HDR stands for high dynamic range, a technology in photography and video that captures more detail in both bright and dark areas of an image than conventional methods allow.

HDR displays can show deeper blacks and brighter highlights: The new TV supports HDR.

In photography, HDR often involves merging multiple exposures: I shot it in HDR mode. (Lowercase hdr appears in informal contexts.)
