Histograms (082)
Camera histograms are intended only as a guide and may differ from
those in imaging applications. Sample histograms are shown below:
If brightness varies evenly across the
image, the distribution of tones
will be relatively even.
If the image is dark, tone distribu-
tion will be shifted to the left.
If the image is bright, tone distribu-
tion will be shifted to the right.
Exposure compensation shifts the distribution of tones to the right
when raised, to the left when lowered. Histograms can give you a
rough idea of overall exposure when bright ambient lighting makes it
difficult to see the display in the monitor.
