Using the histogram to view picture brightness
The histogram shows the distribution of the subject’s brightness. If the peak is to the 
right of the graph, the subject is bright; if it’s to the left, the subject is dark. Optimal 
exposure is achieved when the peak is in the middle of the histogram.
To turn on the histogram in Capture mode or in 
Review, press the LCD/Info button until the 
histogram appears.
