351B: Shooting Information DisplayAF Point DisplayWhen [33: AF point disp.] is set to [Enable], the AF point thatachieved focus will be displayed in red. If automatic AF pointselection is set, multiple AF points may be displayed.HistogramThe brightness histogram shows the exposure level distribution andoverall brightness. The RGB histogram is for checking the colorsaturation and gradation. The display can be switched with [33:Histogram disp].[Brightness] DisplayThis histogram is a graph showing the distribution ofthe image’s brightness level. The horizontal axisindicates the brightness level (darker on the left andbrighter on the right), while the vertical axis indicateshow many pixels exist for each brightness level. Themore pixels there are toward the left, the darker theimage. The more pixels there are toward the right,the brighter the image. If there are too many pixels onthe left, the shadow detail will be lost. If there are toomany pixels on the right, the highlight detail will belost. The gradation in-between will be reproduced. Bychecking the image and its brightness histogram, youcan see the exposure level inclination and the overall gradation.[RGB] DisplayThis histogram is a graph showing the distribution of each primary color’sbrightness level in the image (RGB or red, green, and blue). The horizontalaxis indicates the color’s brightness level (darker on the left and brighter onthe right), while the vertical axis indicates how many pixels exist for eachcolor brightness level. The more pixels there are toward the left, the darkerand less prominent the color. The more pixels there are toward the right, thebrighter and denser the color. If there are too many pixels on the left, therespective color information will be lacking. If there are too many pixels onthe right, the color will be too saturated with no gradation. By checking theimage’s RGB histogram, you can see the color’s saturation and gradationcondition, as well as white balance inclination.Sample HistogramsDark imageNormal brightnessBright image
