The horizontal axis shows the tone values from black (left) through

pixels at each brightness level.
– Grid*
This form of representation – together with the impression of the
picture itself – provides an additional quick and easy assessment
of the exposure setting.
Notes:
• In picture mode the histogram should be regarded as a "trend
indicator" and not as a depiction of the exact numbers of pixels.
• For a picture with flash, the histogram cannot represent the final
exposure as the flash is fired after it is displayed.
• When viewing a picture, the histogram may differ slightly from
that shown when taking the picture.
• The histogram is not available for simultaneous review of several
reduced pictures or for enlarged pictures.
