Histogram - Leica X-U 113 Instructions Manual

Histogram

The histogram depicts the brightness distribution in the picture. The
horizontal axis shows the tone values from black (left) through gray to
white (right). The vertical axis corresponds to the number of pixels at
each brightness level.
This form of representation – in conjunction with the impression of
the picture itself – provides an additional quick and easy assessment
of the exposure setting.
The histogram is available in both picture and playback mode.
For picture mode:
Select in the menu and then select the setting in the
Rec. Histogram
sub-menu
Note:
For a picture with flash, the histogram cannot represent the final
exposure as the flash is fired after it is displayed.
For regular playback mode ( PLAY
Select in the menu and then choose the required
Play Histogram
setting in the sub-menu
Select an option with a clipping function if you want excessively bright
parts of the pictures to be indicated.
Notes:
• In picture mode, the histogram should be regarded as a "trend
indicator" and not as a depiction of the exact numbers of pixels.
• The histogram is not available for simultaneous review of several
reduced pictures or enlarged pictures.
• When viewing a picture, the histogram may differ slightly from that
shown when taking the picture.
