    HLC (Highlight compensation)

    I have noticed with HLC on, super bright areas or light sources in the scene get blacked out (for example car headlights that are blacked out), however I have seen footage where HLC does not do this, it simply dims the light source in the scene. Is this possible to adjust to achieve this?
