Taking pictures/videos 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 P/M 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 (see page 14) before taking the picture. The flash may affect a picture's light and shadow.

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 P/M 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 (see
page 14
) before taking the picture. The
flash may affect a picture’s light and shadow.
