TECHNICAL POINT
Histogram, Highlights and Shadow Alert
The histogram shows the distribution of brightness in a graph on the camera’s display screen. The horizontal axis shows the brightness reproducible with the digital camera (tone), and the vertical axis shows the amount of brightness. The far left side of the horizontal axis shows the darkest part (shadow) that can be reproduced, while the far right side shows the brightest part (highlight). A histogram that’s shifted to the right side is an indication of many light areas in the image. If it’s shifted to the left, the histogram indicates more dark areas in the scene.
Highlights and Shadow Alert
Highlighting is occurring on the bright parts of the shirt, and shadowing in the dark part at the upper right side of the screen. Out of range sections are displayed flashing on the screen to warn of highlighting and shadowing.
