S2 histogram?

[BowerR64]

After you take a shot it will show you a preview of the shot and its exsposure. Can you turn on the histogram so that when it shows the review it also splits and shows the histogram also?

Like in playback mode you can hit the display and toggle the image full screen, the image full screen and display off. I like the half screen histogram and picture like in playback mode. I kinda wana try that in record mode.

Yes there is a way to put the S2 in a mode that all previews show the image and histogram side by side. I have mine set that way. I read a hint somewhere on how to do it and I can't find it and don't remember how I got it into that mode.

I'll keep looking.

Cool, so yours shows the image split screen with the image preview?

I figured it out, thanks! i wasnt sure this camera had that option so i never messed with it.

What i did was go into the menu and change the review time from 2 seconds to 5. Then i went back, took a shot and quickly hit the disp. button. That then changed it over to the preview/histogram mode. Now every shot i take after that shows both.

I think it needs a longer delay time now to view the image and the histogram.

Just a side note: The review screen will stay up as long as you hold down the shutter button. So take the picture, and keep the button down, then you have as long as you need to review the histogram.
