A method and a camera provide an estimation of a mean signal to noise ratio value for an output image comprising a number of pixels, wherein each pixel of the output image has a pixel value. An image histogram divided into bins, the image histogram having information regarding the distribution of pixel values among the pixels of the output image. Each bin has a set of pixels having pixel values within a predetermined range. For each bin of the image histogram, a signal to noise ratio value of that bin may be attributed and weighted with the number of pixels in the set of pixels of that bin. The weighted signal to noise ratio values of the bins are summed, and the sum may then be divided by the total number of pixels of the output image or the total number of pixels in the bins of the image histogram.
