A centered histogram indicates that there is good distribution of light pixels and dark pixels. This type of histogram results when the overall image is at optimal lightness, as shown in the nearby image.
IMPORTANT!
•Note that the above histograms are shown for illustrative purposes only. You may not be able to achieve similar shapes for particular subjects.
•A centered histogram does not necessarily guarantee optimum exposure. If you intentionally want to over expose or under expose the image, you may not want a centered histogram.
•Due to the limitations of exposure compensation, you may not be able to achieve an optimum histogram configuration.
•Use of the flash and certain shooting conditions can cause the histogram to indicate exposure that is different from the actual exposure of the image when it was shot.
•The RGB (color component) histogram lines are displayed for snapshots only.
