if the graph peaks at the right, this means there are
several bright areas in the picture. A peak in the center

When the histogram is not the same as that of the recorded picture under the following conditions,
histogram will be displayed in orange:
• When manual exposure assist indicates settings other than 0 EV in [Manual Exposure] Mode or
during Exposure Compensation.
• When the flash fires.
• When the correct exposure is not achieved or when the brightness of the screen cannot be
displayed accurately in a dark location.

The histogram displayed during recording is only a reference.
