∫ Recording guide line
When you align the subject on the horizontal
and vertical guidelines or the cross point of
these lines, you can take pictures with
well-designed composition by viewing the size,
the slope and the balance of the subject.
∫ About the Histogram
A histogram is a graph that displays brightness along the horizontal axis (black to white)
and the number of pixels at each brightness level on the vertical axis.
It allows you to easily check a picture’s exposure.
