    There’s a DRS setting in the menu.

    Dynamic Range Stretch (DRS)
    In scenes with mixed contrast, such as when panning from indoors to outdoors, the DRS function automatically suppresses blocked shadows and blown highlights. A gamma curve and knee slope are estimated to match the contrast of each pixel, and applied in real time. When dark, bright, and intermediate shades are all contained in the same scene, this produces excellent gradation for each shade and minimizes blocked shadows and blown highlights. The images that result are enhanced by a visually wide dynamic range.
    *The DRS function does not operate in 1080/25p, 1080/24p or 1080/30p mode.
