 About the Histogram
The brightness histogram display shows the exposure level 
distribution and overall brightness. The RGB histogram display is for 
checking the color saturation an d gradation. The display can be 
switched with the [ 4 Histogram ] menu.
[Brightness] Display This histogram is a graph showing the 
distribution of the image’s brightness level. The 
horizontal axis indicates the brightness level 
(darker on the left and br ighter on the right), 
while the vertical axis indicates how many 
pixels exist for each brightness level. The more 
pixels there are toward  the left, the darker the 
image. And the more pixels there are toward the 
right, the brighter the image. If there are too 
many pixels on the left, the shadow detail will be 
lost. And if there are too many pixels on the 
right, the highlight detail will be lost. The 
gradation in-between will  be reproduced. By checking the image and 
its brightness histogram, you can se e the exposure level inclination 
and the overall tone reproduction.
[RGB] Display
This histogram is a graph showi ng the distribution of each primary 
color’s brightness level in  the image (RGB or red, green, and blue). 
The horizontal axis indi cates 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 br ightness level. The more pixels 
there are toward the left, the dark er and less prominent the color. 
And the more pixels there are toward the right, the brighter and 
denser the color. If there are to o many pixels on the left, the 
respective color informat ion 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 histog ram, you can see the color’s 
saturation and gradation conditio n and white balance inclination.
