Histogram display
Displays a histogram showing the distribution of brightness in the image. The horizontal axis
gives the brightness, the vertical axis the number of pixels of each brightness in the image.
Areas above the upper limit at shooting are displayed in red, those below the lower limit in
blue, and the area metered using spot metering in green.
