When the RAW image shot with the D-Range Optimizer function is opened with Image Data Lightbox SR, I cannot see the effect of the D-Range Optimizer, while I can see the effect on the LCD screen of the camera or Picture Motion Browser.
The image recorded in the RAW format is the raw data directly captured by the image sensor, and the DRO effect cannot be seen in this data itself.
Using the [D-Range Optimizer] settings in Image Data Converter SR Ver.2, you can apply the DRO effect to the RAW data. [Auto] (equivalent to the Advanced or Advanced: Auto mode* in the camera) and [Manual] are available for the [D-Range Optimizer] settings.
* The mode name varies depending on the camera.

* When playing back the RAW image on the LCD screen of the camera or Picture Motion Browser, the small JPEG image recorded with the RAW data is displayed so that you can see the DRO effect.
However, if the image shot with the modes other than the Standard mode in the DRO function or the DRO advanced bracket in the Drive mode (if available) is enlarged on the camera's screen, you cannot see its effect due to system restrictions.
