Stock photo search. Photography Tips. Understanding Histograms. Possibly the most useful tool available in digital photography is the histogram. It could also well be the least understood. In this article we will look at what a camera histogram tells the photographer and how best to utilize that information. Virtually every digital camera, from the simplest point-and-shoot to the most sophisticated digital SLR has the ability to display a histogram directly, or more usually superimposed upon the image just taken. (The Hasselblad H1, the latest generation of film & digital capable cameras, can display a histogram on the camera grip’s LCD while the image is separately displayed on the digital back’s LCD.)

On most cameras though the histogram display takes place on the rear LCD screen, and most cameras can be programmed to do this both on the image that is displayed immediately after a shot is taken, or later when frames are being reviewed.

Stroboscopic Lighting. Flash Photography Made Simple by Chuck McKern For some reason, flash photography is a topic many people are deathly afraid of and many others don't fully understand. Flash units are just tools to assist us in our picture taking. They improve our photography by allowing us to control the light. I'm going to discuss flash photography in a manner that, I hope, is easy to understand and should take some of the fear out of using that "F" word (flash not the other "F" word silly). When most of us think about using a flash, we think of low light scenes indoors or outside at night.

Direct Flash Direct flash is what most people are most familiar with, and is when the flash unit emits its burst of light directly at the subject. For many years, all flash attachments were designed as a direct flash (many less expensive units are still designed this way today). The characteristics of direct flash are easy to recognize.
