Histogram Display
When viewing still images you can
display the histogram and the icons of
all the functions used at the time of
recording. Use the histogram as a
reference to verify the correct exposure
of the still image.
The area to the right of the histogram
represents highlights and the left side
represents shadows. A still image
whose histogram skews to the right is
relatively bright; while one whose
histogram peaks to the left, is relatively
dark.
NOTES
The histogram will appear also after
recording a still image, while reviewing it
within the time set for the [REVIEW] option
(or immediately after recording it, if
[REVIEW] is set to [ OFF]). You can
choose to turn off the histogram by
pressing ( 54).
Capturing a Still Image from the
Playback Scene
You can capture as still images frames
from a scene. The size of the captured
still image will be LW 1920x1080 and it
cannot be changed, but you can select
the image quality.
POINTS TO CHECK

FUNC.
( 28)
[EVALUATIVE]
Appropriate for standard shooting conditions,
including backlit scenes. The camcorder divides
the picture into several areas and the light is
measured in all of them to achieve the optimal
exposure for the subject.
[ CENT.WEIGHT.AVERAGE]
Averages the light metered from the entire
screen, giving more weight to the subject in the
center.
[SPOT]
Meters only the area within the spot AE point
frame. Use this setting to adjust the exposure to
match the subject in the center of the screen.
