[. . . ] By checking the image and its brightness histogram, you can see the exposure level inclination and the overall tone reproduction condition. Sample Histograms Dark image Normal image [RGB] Display Bright image This histogram is a graph showing the distribution of the image's brightness level of each primary color (RGB or red, blue, and green). The horizontal axis indicates the color's brightness level (darker on the left and brighter on the right), while the vertical axis indicates how many pixels exist for each color brightness level. The more pixels there are toward the left, the darker and less prominent the color. And the more pixels there are toward the right, the brighter and denser the color. If there are too many pixels on the left, the respective color information will be lacking. And if there are too many pixels on the right, the color will be too saturated with no detail. By checking the image's RGB histogram, you can see the color's saturation and gradation condition and white balance inclination. 118 x Image Playback Index Display 1 Turn on the index display.
