Using the histogram to view picture brightness
Use the histogram to evaluate the distribution of light before or after you take a
picture. If the peak is to the right of the graph, the subject is bright; if it’s to the left,
the subject is dark. Optimal exposure is achieved when the peak is in the middle of
the histogram.
To turn on the histogram in any picture-taking
mode or in Review, press the Info
button until
the histogram appears.
NOTE: If a scene is dark or light, you can adjust the exposure
compensation before taking the picture. The flash may affect
a picture’s light and shadow.
