INFO,:Shooting Information DispIay
_ About the Highlight Alert
When the shooting information is displayed, any overexposed areas of the
image will blink. Toobtain more image detail in the overexposed areas, set
the exposure compensation to a negative amount and shoot again.
®_About the Histogram
The brightness histogram shows the exposure level distribution and overall
brightness. The RGB histogram is for checking the color saturation and
gradation. The display can be switched with [I]i_]2: Histogram disp].
[Brightness] Display SampleHistograms
This histogram is agraph showingthe distributionof
the image's brightness level.The horizontalaxis
indicatesthe brightness level (darker on theleft and
brighter onthe right),while the vertical axis indicates Darkimage
how many pixelsexist for each brightness level.The
more pixelsthere are toward the left, thedarker the
image. The more pixelsthere are toward theright, the Normalbrightness
brighterthe image. If there aretoo many pixels onthe
left, theshadow detailwill be lost.Ifthere are too many
pixels onthe right, the highlight detailwill be lost.The
gradation in-between will bereproduced. By checking
the imageand its brightness histogram,you can see
the exposurelevel inclination andthe overall gradation.
[RGB] Display
This histogram is a graph showing the distribution of each primary
color's brightness level in the image (RGB or red, green, and blue).
The horizontal axis indicates the color's brightness level (darker on
the left and brighter on the right), while the vertical axis indicates how
many pixels exist for each color brightness level. The more pixels
there are toward the left, the darker and less prominent the color. The
more pixels there are toward the right, the brighter and denser the
color. If there are too many pixels on the left, the respective color
information will be lacking. If there are too many pixels on the right,
the color will be too saturated with no gradation. By checking the
image's RGB histogram, you can see the color's saturation and
gradation condition, as well as white balance inclination.
