Histogram

Histogram (n.) A graphical representation of the tonal distribution in a digital image. In mobile photography, many advanced camera apps now include histogram displays. The histogram shows the distribution of pixels from dark (left) to light (right), helping photographers assess exposure and contrast. Understanding how to read a histogram can help mobile photographers avoid overexposed highlights or underexposed shadows, leading to better-balanced images, especially in high-contrast scenes.
