Focus Assist Types
Inside the Focus Assist menu, four types of focusing tools are available
for use:
Zebra
Zebra lines show the parts of the image that are over exposed relevant to
the % level set. 95% is usually used for objects, windows and surfaces.
75% is used for checking over exposure of human faces this will indicate
reectiveorshinyareasontheface.
False Colour
False Colour assigns different colors to areas of different exposure in the
image. Instead of just showing what parts of the image are overexposed,
it gives a more complete picture of what is going on in the image by
using a range of exposure values. Generally speaking, overexposed
elements will display as red, and underexposed elements will display
as blue.
The gradient between colour levels can be adjusted to have a gradient or
not. If gradient is not selected, the colour levels will change instantly to
the next colour level.
