What if our cameras don't have Zebra? I know Magic Lantern can help us with that but I don't want to risk of breaking my camera that's not supported. And there's also monitors which I would want to avoid buying one.
Very helpful.
I just bought a BMPCC 6K and was wondering what that graph was. - Thanks!
great tutorial and easy to understand
Amazing very very helpful
@@HaotoAnimeOnPiano He does not reply to comments. Too bad.
7 years later and still better at explaining than the other 5 or so videos i've tried. thank you.
4 minute video, to the point, clear explanation, and educational. THank you!!
Finally, a video that gets right to the point instead of talking about their accomplishments first!
The best informative photography channel on youtube. Best, and presented in a nutshell with full detail. No chitchat, no nothing, straight-to-the-point. Other people out there would be churning out a 24mins video with less information than this 4min video.
Thanks finally I understand Histogram
Same lol.
Excellent! Clear, concise. AND, most importantly, you actually show the image with histogram as you’re explaining! Nice job!
Thank you for this great explanation of the histogram. You present the concepts in a way that are easy to understand. Your videos are high quality in content, delivery, and illustrations. Thanks!
I agree with you, I have learned so much from him. One of my favorites
I wish I could like this twice! So informative, precise, to the point.
Best Explanation of Camera Histogram . Bravo !!!!!

I found this video better because it explains why it's a mistake to just look at the overall image: ruclips.net/video/FcGU1Kpl0sM/видео.html
such a good teacher you are . you have a nice manner and a clear and concise approach...thank you...very good indeed.
Thank you! This is by far the best vido in explaining the histogram I have ever encountered on the internet.
This really helped. Thank you for breaking this down and making it simple to understand.
This and another video have gave me such a greater understanding of correct exposure in my shots in the last 15 mins on YT. Thank you.
Im new to the camera and have struggled to understand why my portraits look great on the lcd but different once uploaded lol
Short, to the point and easy to understand !
Thanks.
This understanding has amounted to the single best improvement in my photography skills. Thank you!
Here in 2024 - Best 4 minutes spent on RUclips in a while. Thanks ZY Cheng 7 years ago.
Well explained with plain terms that are not hard to understand. Well paced without alot of umm's and uhh's. No extraneous music or jump cuts. Clarity of thought! Thanks for demystifying the Histogram which can be daunting to some as they see all these peaky formations and it fools them into thinking its complicated and ultra high tech.
Great explanation! Useful, enough, no fuss and adds and introductions and other useless shit! I wish all of RUclips was like this. Thank you 💕.
One of the most lucid explanations of the histogram !
Thanks for your excellent video tutorials!

This has saved me. And such clear and concise explanation w/examples! Thank you!!
The best explanation of a histogram that I have come across. Thank you.
I am so glad I found your educational videos! I have spent countless hours searching for videos to help expand my knowledge on very specific things in photography. I have been astonished at how many videos are poorly made and by the end of the time the question is an answered. You are fantastic at shining a laser spotlight on a topic, delivering it in an accessible and personable way in a record short period of time! Your videos are good! Thank you so much!
Thank you for the detailed explanation - it confirms many things I thought I knew and fills in missing information I did not have.
This is a perfect video. I come back to it every now and then for a refresher
Your explanations are so detail and easy to understand! I'm a beginner and still don't know all of the functions on the camera. It'll be great if you can start a series explaining things for beginner!
One of the best explanations of this I have ever seen. Great visuals and well explained. Thanks.
Atleast 1 year after most you guys have been here, but nevertheless, this guy is spot on. I have just recently acquired a Nikon d5300 and this is the best explanation I have seen for histogram.

This was a very well detailed video. First time learning about the histogram and i actually completely understand it with this being my only second video learning about it!
Really approachable overview of histograms. I've been trying to improve exposure in my videos, and this gives me a much better grasp of what I should be looking for while doing so. Great to know how the zebra mode can be used in conjunction to really explain why the histogram reads a certain way. Thanks for this!
High quality video that doesn't waste your time. Subbed.
Definitely subscribing - that was so clear and easy to follow!
You explained it so clearly I subscribed right away, keep up the good videos!
I have watched multiple videos around this subject and I feel like you have explained something totally different from the others, but at the same time it was so understandable! I can finally say that I understand that😭
