Notes:
• The histogram is always based on the displayed brightness, i.e.
depending on other settings, it may not represent the final
exposure.
• In recording mode the histogram should be regarded as a "trend
indicator" and not as a depiction of the exact numbers of pixels.
• For a picture with flash, the histogram cannot represent the final
exposure as the flash is fired after it is displayed.
,
• When viewing a picture, the histogram may differ slightly from
that shown when taking the picture.
• The histogram is not available for simultaneous review of several
reduced pictures or for enlarged pictures.
• The clipping display is available when viewing both the entire
picture and a section of it, but not when simultaneously viewing
12 or 30 reduced pictures.
• The clipping display always relates to the detail of the part of the
picture currently being displayed.
