Histograms (
Camera histograms are intended only as a guide and may differ from
those in imaging applications. Sample histograms are shown below:
•
If brightness varies evenly across the
image
, the distribution of tones
will be relatively even.
•
If the image is dark
, tone distribu-
tion will be shifted to the left.
•
If the image is bright
, tone distribu-
tion will be shifted to the right.
Exposure compensation shifts the distribution of tones to the right
when raised, to the left when lowered. Histograms can give you a rough
idea of overall exposure when bright ambient lighting makes it difficult
to see the display in the monitor.
