Working with pictures/videos Using the histogram to view picture brightness Use the histogram to evaluate the distribution of light before or after you take a picture. If the peak is to the right of the graph, the subject is bright; if it's to the left, the subject is dark. Optimal exposure is achieved when the peak is in the middle of the histogram. To turn on the histogram in any picture-taking mode or in Review, press the Info button until the histogram appears. NOTE: If a scene is dark or light, you can adjust the exposure compensation before taking the picture. The flash may affect a picture's light and shadow. www.kodak.com/go/z710support 23

Using the histogram to view picture brightness
Use the histogram to evaluate the distribution of light before or after you take a picture.
If the peak is to the right of the graph, the subject is bright; if it’s to the left, the subject
is dark. Optimal exposure is achieved when the peak is in the middle of the histogram.
To turn on the histogram in any picture-taking mode
or in Review, press the Info
button until the
histogram appears.
NOTE: If a scene is dark or light, you can adjust the exposure
compensation before taking the picture. The flash may affect a
picture’s light and shadow.
