About the Histogram

A histogram is a graph indicating the image's brightness. The horizontal axis indicates the
brightness level, while the vertical axis indicates how many pixels exist for each brightness
level. From left to right on the horizontal axis, the brightness goes from dark to bright.
The more pixels there are toward the left, the darker the image. The more pixels there are
toward the right, the brighter the image. If
there are too many pixels on either side,
you can set exposure compensation
(→p.92) to take the picture again so that
the exposure is more accurate.
