What is Black stretch..?

Hi Guys,

Hope this isn't too novice a question, but can someone please explain what the Black stretch facility does on a lot of the new cameras..?

I'm thinking, or rather hoping it's a way to eliminate noise for under lit scenes...!!

But then I read posts about people being dissatisfied with how noisy (visually)
their cameras are....
As you might of guessed I haven't bought my camera yet.......I'm leaning to-wards the HVX........although if JVC get their problems fixed....who knows..!


I would appreciate any clarification on 'Black Stretch' and what it does.

Thanks in advance.
