Histograms: Snapshot

The video tutorial explains how digital cameras use histograms to help photographers capture the perfect shot. Histograms visually represent data distribution, showing brightness and darkness levels. Photographers aim for midrange histograms but also focus on contrast, which affects detail visibility. Unlike bar graphs, histograms use bar area to indicate frequency. Photographers often expose to the right, skewing histograms to maximize light and detail, resulting in better pictures.
