What is histogram ?

The histogram displays the luminance distribution that shows how many pixels of a
particular brightness exist in the picture. Brighter image will make the entire histogram shift
to the right side, and darker image to the left side.

• If the image has a high-key or low-key portion, that

portion flashes on the histogram display during
playback (Luminance limit warning).
