The eye can capture approximately 5 orders of magnitude of dynamic range effectively simultaneously and up to 9 orders of magnitude of steady dynamic range with adaption. (Orders of magnitude are log base 10.) 10^5 = 16.6 stops dynamic range 10^9 = 29.9 stops steady dynamic range.
Hi Elditya: : It is better to say that HDR is a technology that allows more image information and detail to be captured in both the bright areas and in the shadows. It is not just making brights brighter or darks darker. In a standard dynamic range image, after a certain brightness every thing is rendered white and after a certain level of shadow everything is shown as black. HDR technology captures and displays more details in the bright and dark areas. We hope this helps.
Interesting how Canon talks about HDR, yet their DSLR cameras fall behind in dynamic range compared to Nikon and Sony. When are we going to see full frame or crop sensor cameras that have a dynamic range of at least 14 EV? I love Canon glass, I think it's superior over any manufacturer, just look at the Canon 70-200 f2.8 IS II, that thing is a beast and built like a tank. If the Canon 6D sensor measures at least 14 EV, preferably 14.5 EV (to compete with Nikon D750, D810), I will consider buying it along with the 24-105 kit and the Canon 70-200 IS II.
Descriptions of hdr on youtube are not great. This is the best one I've seen so far.
It's amazing see phones now have HDR...but is it as good as a video camera?

0:06 expose for highlights you miss details in the shadows, expose for shadows and you miss what’s happening in the highlights
so it basically makes bright areas brighter and dark areas darker ?

@@CanonUSA great job!

I meant to say 6D mark II. I'll be waiting to see what it has to offer. If it doesn't deliver, I'm staying with Nikon.

Canon should hit me up with a camera ;)
