• Histogram
A histogram
is
a graph that displays brightness
along
the
horizontal axis
and
the number
of
pixels
at
each
brightness level
on
the
vertical
axis.
You
can
see
the exposure condition of
the
picture
by
looking
at
the
histogram shape
(graph distribution) for
the
picture taken
below.
• If the graph forms mountain shape
with its top located
in
the center ®, this
means medium parts and bright parts are
distributed
in
a well-balanced manner.
This picture is good for recording.
• If the values are extremely concentrated
on the left
®, the picture is under
exposed with too many dark parts. This
type of histogram occurs, for example,
when black parts such as night scenery
occupy most of the screen.
• If the values are extremely concentrated
on the right ©, the picture
is
overexposed
with too many bright parts. This type of
histogram occurs, for example, when
white parts occupy most of the screen.
