OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS

IMPORTANT!

Note that the above histograms are shown for illustrative purposes only. You may not be able to achieve exactly the same shapes for particular subjects.

A centered histogram does not necessarily guarantee optimum exposure. The recorded image may be over-exposed or under-exposed, even though its histogram is centered.

You may not be able to achieve an optimum histogram configuration due to the limitations of EV shift.

Use of the flash as well as certain shooting conditions can cause the histogram to indicate exposure that is different from the actual exposure of the image when it was recorded.

This histogram does not appear when you are using Coupling Shot (page 62).
