Dark Light The exposure compensation will change the histogram accordingly. The right illustration is an example. Shooting with the exposure compensation on the positive side brightens the whole picture, making the entire histogram shift to the bright side (right side). If the exposure compensation is applied on the negative side, the histogram will shift to the other side. Both ends of the histogram show a highkey or low-key portion. It is impossible to restore these area with a computer later. Adjust the exposure if necessary and shoot again. Notes • The histogram displayed in Live view mode does not indicate the final recorded image. It indicates the condition of the image just monitored. The histogram will differ based on aperture setting, etc. • The histogram differs between shooting and playback in the following situations: - When firing the flash. - When the subject has low intensity, such as night scenery. 87
