Full-details mode D

In full-details mode, you can read a complete list of camera settings, plus see the histogram

and, in the background, a darkened preview of the image.

The camera-setting details are stored with the image, so you can refer to them using Phocus

even after you have loaded the image to your computer and stored it in your archive.

Overexposure C

A histogram that is concentrated on the right with few pixels elsewhere indicates a likely

overexposure. Many details will be lost in the highlights

Even exposure B

A histogram display that is spread across the full range indicates a likely good exposure.

There may still be a few pixels at the extremes, indicating a few spectral highlights and

saturated shadows, but this is often normal in a good exposure.

Underexposure A

A histogram that is concentrated on the left with few pixels elsewhere indicates a likely

underexposure. Many details will be lost in the shadows.

Histogram Mode A, B, C

The histogram provides a graph that indicates the total number of pixels at each brightness

level, with brightnesses going from black on the left to white on the right. It is a valuable

tool for evaluating your exposure. A well-exposed shot usually has a full range of levels,

while under- and overexposed shots tend to show levels concentrated at the left or right

part of the scale, respectively.

Note

The histogram is only an indicator

that should be interpreted—there are

situations in which a doubtful histo-

gram will match an exposure that is

very good for the intended eﬀect (and

vice-versa).

Regardless of the current mode, if you zoom in on the image or zoom out to the thumbnails,

the display reverts to showing the “standard” preview frame, which shows information

about the current image and camera settings around the edges. When you return to the

standard zoom level, however, you will then also return to your last-selected preview mode.

The display also operates in menu mode, which does not show a preview, but enables

you to make sensor unit settings. To enter menu mode, press the menu button. See Menu

Items for details.

 • Batterysaver:

Turns oﬀ the screen, but you can still use the menus and take pictures.

 • Full-screenpreview:

Shows the preview only, with no frame or settings information.

Battery-saver mode E

In this mode, the CFV is fully responsive, so you can take pictures but the screen is not lit

up, thereby saving battery power.

You can enter the menu system while shooting in this mode (which activates the screen

until you exit the menu system again) but the approval, zoom and navigator buttons have

no eﬀect.
