8EV is a standard value for the photographically usable dynamic range. You can change it to match
your particular camera through Preferences – Exposure – Underexposure detection limit.

If positive exposure compensation was applied to the image the table may contain an additional
column OE+Corr, indicating the number of pixels, which will be above the maximum value after the
exposure compensation is applied.

After the positive exposure compensation was applied as in the shot above, 10% of “green” pixels are
above the maximum, most probably because the value of the exposure compensation is a little bit
overboard.

For a fast review of a significant number of files, it may be convenient to keep the OE+Corr column
always on. This way, you won’t be distracted by the changes in the size of the panel. This can be done
by going into the Exposure Stats panel’s settings (gear icon) and checking Always display OE+Corr
column.
