Histogram Function

The histogram is a graph that allows you to judge the brightness of the
shot image. The greater the bias toward the left in the graph, the darker
the image. The greater the bias toward the right, the brighter the image.
If the image is too dark, adjust the exposure compensation to a positive
value. Similarly, adjust the exposure compensation to a negative value
if the image is too bright (p. 95).
