Viewing Overexposure Areas and Histogram Information
There are two display options available on the Image LCD panel: Highlight and
Histogram/Info.
The Highlight feature causes overexposed areas of the image to blink. This feature helps
you immediately determine how much of the image (or what area of a scene) was
overexposed. The feature also helps you to evaluate whether the desired scene area was
correctly exposed, even though less desirable areas may have been overexposed.
The Histogram displays a graphic representation of the luminance level of all pixels across
the image. This is sometimes referred to as tonal distribution. The number of pixels at
each luminance level is plotted and displayed beneath a small representation of the image.
This information can help you determine whether the image, on average, was correctly
exposed or met the overall exposure curve desired.
