APPROPRIATE EXPOSURE
ISO 800 - Monitor Output
In this image, the camera is appropriately exposed for this scene. The monitor is neither very dark nor
very bright and the histogram is spread evenly given that there are bright highlights on the coin we wish
not to blow out. Note that there is no red bar on either the left or the right edges of the histogram and
the vertical color stack to the right of the histogram is at yellow. These indicators suggest that there is no
significant amount of the sensor’s RAW data in the noise” or “at clip”, and that the peak level of the
sensor’s RAW data is about 2/3 stop below clipping.
