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 – together with the impression of the
picture itself – provides an additional quick and easy assessment
of the exposure setting.
Notes:
In picture mode the histogram should be regarded as a "trend
indicator" and not as a depiction of the exact numbers of pixels.
For a picture with flash, the histogram cannot represent the final
exposure as the flash is fired after it is displayed.
When viewing a picture, the histogram may differ slightly from
that shown when taking the picture.
The histogram is not available for simultaneous review of several
reduced pictures or for enlarged pictures.
