How to Use the Histogram A histogram is a graph that represents the lightness of an image in terms of the number of pixels. The vertical axis indicates the number of pixels, while the horizontal axis indicates lightness. If the histogram appears too lopsided for some reason, you can use EV shift to move it left or right in order to achieve better balance. Optimum exposure can be achieved by EV shifting so the graph is as close to the center as possible.

This makes it possible to combine images in ways that create exciting, totally unbelievable scenes. Moving CS Images Extract the subject. Insert it into another image. You can create a Dynamic Photo image by inserting a moving subject into a background image.
Creating a Dynamic Photo Image Step 1: Shoot the subject. Dynamic Photo images are created by extracting the subject out of one image, and inserting it into another image. The term “subject” as used here refers to what you extract or crop out of the first image. Perform the following steps to shoot and extract the subject. To extract the subject, you shoot once with the subject against a background. Then you shoot the same background again, this time without the subject. (Shoot twice.
3. First, shoot the subject. Best results can be obtained with the camera secured on a tripod. With the camera pointed at the moving subject, press the shutter button to record. If you selected “Moving Subject”, the camera will record a series of Continuous Shutter (CS) images over a few seconds. First, let’s just have the subject wave or perform • To help ensure good cropping results... some other simple * See “Four Tips for Good Subject Cropping”. movement as we shoot.
Step 2: Create the Dynamic Photo image. Use the following procedure to insert the subject you extracted in Step 1 above into a photograph and create the final Dynamic Photo image. 1.

Complete! • The size of a Dynamic Photo image created by inserting a moving subject into a background image is 2M.
Recommended!! Shooting Technique 2 Shooting Technique 1 Find some reference points and use a tripod. Look for a flat wall that has no markings. Best cropping results are obtained when the background is a wall that is completely free of visible markings like the one shown above. In this case, it is not necessary to take pains to position the camera correctly when shooting the second (background only) image required by Dynamic Photo.
Move the subject away from the wall to avoid shadows! The camera may mistake shadows on the wall or floor caused by strong sunlight, illumination, or other light sources as part of the subject. Shadows tend to form when the subject is too close to a wall. Have the subject move as far away as possible from the wall. Do not use a moving background! Good cropping is not possible if anything besides the subject is moving in the images. For example, avoid breaking waves, trees blowing in the wind, etc.
Specifying the Subject Type and CS Speed Pressing [SET] during step 1 of “3. First, shoot the subject.” will display a screen for specifying the subject type and CS speed. You can select from among the four subject types listed below. You also can specify a stationary subject (one frame only) in addition to a moving subject.
