Histogram
Shows you the distribution of brightness in recorded
images. Checking the histogram will enable more
precise exposure control for subsequent shots.
How to use the histogram display
The histogram display enables you to check the
brightest highlights and darkest shadows which may
result in a poor image. If the bars in the histogram are
higher towards the right, the image may be too bright.
If the bars are higher on the left, the image may be too
dark. Compensate the exposure or shoot again.
Highlight
The overexposed parts of the recorded image blink.
Shooting information
Displays the exposure mode, metering mode, record
mode, ISO sensitivity, color space, saturation and
focal length, etc.
