[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 320691, member: 12496"] It is a very good graphical presentation, but... He uses a colored Raw editor histogram to show it, after the fact of using the camera. We normally only check the histogram to check for clipping at the right end. What seriously needs to be stated is that we CANNOT use the single gray histogram in the camera for this, it is really crummy and does not show the clipping we seek to see. We must use the three RGB colored histograms in the camera to judge clipping. See [URL="http://www.scantips.com/lights/histograms.html"]Two types of Histograms[/URL] [/QUOTE]
