A histogram showing the distribution of brightness in the image is
displayed. The horizontal axis gives the brightness, the vertical axis
the number of pixels of each brightness in the image. Areas above
the upper limit at shooting are displayed in red, those below the
lower limit in blue, and those within the spot metering range in
green. You can choose the upper and lower limits.
