Highlight Tone Priority & Auto Lighting Optimizer

[Vernon Barker]

Any comments on their use in bird photography?

[Stephen Fletcher]

Yes, switch them both off

[Chris Upson]

I have them switched off on my Canon 50d and that is how they will stay

[Nikon Kid]

Just to reiterate this is how it should look in C.FnII:Image
1234
0303

When I first looked at this because it was all set to 0000 I thought it was off, silly boy.

Thanks for all your comments, just one more thing, why have them both off?
