Phase One H 5 - Manual (Page 43)

Conversely, if the image is a dark subject (or is underexposed) then the
data will all be to the left side of the graph. A well exposed image of a
“normal” scene will have most of the graph data spiked in the middle
with some highlight and shadow pixels to the right and left.
The Exposure area also has a powerful feature that can warn of
overexposed, and underexposed, images.
Remaining Resources
Also in the Preview Tab window is the section called Remaining
Resources. This section helps gauge how much hard disk space is
available. Some laptop computers also support a battery display which
indicates the charge level.
Function Tabs and Window
The Function Tabs add features to the Phase One H 5 software
without adding the clutter of multiple dialog boxes. Click on a tab
to change the contents of the Function window and to enhance and
evaluate the image before developing. The tabs are arranged in a
logical workflow sequence.
Capture Tab
The Capture tab is the option used most while shooting. This tab shows
basic information about the most recently captured image. The top part
of the window displays a histogram.
Exposure Window
A histogram is simply a graphical representation of where the pixels are
distributed in an image. The right hand side of the graph represents white
or light colored pixels, while the left is dark or black pixels. If the image
is of a light colored scene (or is overexposed) then most of the pixels
(and the graph data) will be to the right.
