<p>An exposure meter includes a display device 16 on which is displayed a histogram 17. The x axis is divided into cells representing ranges of possible luminance values. The height (i.e., y value) of each cell of the histogram represents the number of individual areas within the scene to be photographed whose luminance falls within that cell. Alongside the histogram, a bar 18 is displayed representing the range of luminance values which can be photographed, this being calculated according to the film characteristics, shutter speed and aperture size. The information displayed at 16 is provided by a processor which receives information from a keyboard 12 and a color camera photosensor onto which is focused an image of the scene to be photographed.</p> |
