Histogram/Grid Window ( )
Histogram
Histogram shows you the distribution of
brightness in recorded images. If the bars in the
histogram are higher towards the right, the image
may be too bright. If the bars are higher on the
left, the image may be too dark. If the lighting
conditions are too bright to check the subject by
using the LCD, checking the histogram will enable
more precise exposure control for the shots.
Grid
If you focus on the subject using a variety of horizontal or vertical grids, you
will be able to take pictures at better angles, checking size, horizontality, or
proportions. For information on types of grid and how to set them, refer to
Page 82.
