Advanced37VQT0Y19w Histogram• A histogram is a graph that displaysbrightness along the horizontal axis (blackto white) and the number of pixels at eachbrightness level on the vertical axis.• It allows you to easily check a picture’sexposure.• It is very useful if manual adjustments ofthe lens aperture and shutter speed areavailable, especially in those situationswhere automatic exposure may be difficultdue to uneven lighting. Using thehistogram feature allows you to get themaximum performance from your camera. When the values are concentrated onthe left, the picture is under exposed. When the values are distributed evenly,the exposure is proper and thebrightness is well-balanced. When the values are concentrated onthe right, the picture is over exposed.Examples of histogram Under Exposed Properly Exposed Over Exposed_Histogram• When you take pictures with the flashor in dark places, the histogram isdisplayed in orange because therecorded picture and the histogram donot match each other.• The histogram is an approximation inrecording mode.• The histogram of a picture may not matchin recording mode and playback mode.• The histogram displayed in this cameradoes not match histograms displayed bypicture editing software used in PCs etc.• The histogram does not appear during thefollowing.– Simple mode [ ]– Motion picture mode [ ]– Multi playback– Calendar playback– Playback zoom– [DUAL DISPLAY]10:00 DEC. 1.2006F2.8 1/50 ISO100 AUTO1/310:00 DEC. 1.2006F2.8 1/100 ISO100 AUTO1/310:00 DEC. 1.2006F2.8 1/200 ISO100 AUTO1/3100_0001100_0001100_0001
