Image quality analysis

After capturing an image, the image quality analysis is performed if image quality analysis is enabled from
optics menu. The results of image quality analysis are shown in instant review with the image. Letter B
represents the brightness of the image. If the brightness of the image is good, the indicator is shown as
green. The indicator is shown as yellow, if the image is little bit over or under exposed. If the image is
severely over or under exposed the indicator is shown as red.
Letter R represents reflections and shadowing. If the image
has no reflections or shadowing, the indicator is shown as
green. The indicator is shown as yellow, if the image has small
reflections or shadows. If the image has large reflections or
shadows, the light is red.
Letter S represents sharpness. If the image is sharp, the
sharpness value is green. The indicator is yellow, if the image
is not sharp enough. For un-sharp image, the indicator light is
shown as red.
