REAL-TIME HISTOGRAM

In the center of the display switch, the display-information button controls what
information is displayed with the live image. Each time the button is pressed,
the display cycles to the next format: standard display, focus frame, real-time
histogram, and live image only. The number of screens and their formats can
be changed in the custom 1 section of the setup menu (p. 14 of this manual).

Real-time histogram

The real-time histogram shows the approximate luminance distribution of the live image. This his-
togram will not be accurate when the monitor image is amplified (p. 6 of this manual and p. 72 of the
DiMAGE 7 manual), or the built-in or a compatible Minolta flash unit is used. The histogram of a
recorded image may not have the same distribution as the real-time histogram.
