Finally after so much time and so many videos I found someone who explained the histagram in details and showed how to use it in practice. Now I know how to implement it in my photography. It has always been a mystery to me, but not anymore. Thank you so much!

I had exactly the same thought. So many videos don't explain properly how to read it, and reprimand you for going too much to the left or right when it is actually just an objective reading on whether their are underexposed and overexposed areas.

Not only was this a great explanation of histograms that was easy to understand, but you also explained how it ties in to post processing with software and the individual benefits of changing highlights and shadows. Brilliant stuff.

You were born to teach! Thank you! I've learned so much from you and you're so helpful

As a new student of photography I find this video very very helpful. I didn't know what that chart was and how it would affect the image. Learned so much for 15 minutes. Thank you so much !!!

Loved this. I always thought histograms were too advanced and complicated to figure out, but this was a great breakdown. Thank you!

Thank you Paul for your easy to understand explanations. For years I took pictures. Now finally in my retirement I am learning photography and thanks to you I am doing just that.

Straight To the point, without wasting time. One of the many things I like. 👍👍👍👍👍

One of the best explanations of histograms that I have seen!!

Honestly this guy is such a gem. We appreciate and love you Paul

I've been trying to understand the histogram for ages and this is the first video that actually explains it. 👍

Nobody can explain histogram better than this👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻explaining in clear and lucid way is a skill , and sir u posses it totally👏🏻👏🏻hats off

So new to this, I was admiring a professional photographers work at an event and he brought up histogram, now I understand what he was talking about.

This is one of those videos that actually blew my mind. New to photography, I have been scouring KZread for tips and techniques. Photo Genius is (by far) one of my favorite channels. But this video stands out as one of the best because understanding the histogram is incredibly useful for me taking pictures and then touching them up in LR. Thank you for your content!

Great video, Paul. Histograms may not be something that is used all the time, but good photographers appreciate and know how to use all the tools available to them. Some photographers in the comments never use this tool, and that's fine. They shouldnt criticize you for explaining it. I appreciate the explanation and application. Thank you.

Thanks Paul. Your clear explanations are really helping me understand the histograms better.

WOW! The end where you mentioned "shifting to the right"......that alone is going to help me a ton! I have a feeling I will be referring back to this video, alot. Thank you so much for explaining it all!

What a great video! I've had my nikon for 4 months and didn't realize I had this feature. Thanks Paul!

I love the photo with the surfer silhouette.

paul is really a photo genius , thank you Paul !!

Am about 3 months into my photography journey and keep coming back to your vids. Great presentation and always simple, relatable advice and guidance... Keep them coming!! Thankyou!

i'm learning SO much here compared to all the channels i have attempted to watch. i feel as if i'm really taking a photography class lol. great content, clear concise explanations. awesome

Excellent! Loved that you showed actual examples and sowed in photo the highlights, mid tones, etc.

Without any doubt, this is the best video I've ever seen on understanding the histogram. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!

Thank you for your kind feedback Debbie, I really appreciate your support. Paul 😀👍

Thank you so much for this video, I’ve watched so many of these and this is the first one, where the information was actually absorbable! 🙏🏻

Many thanks Paul for bringing clarity to this important photography tool which I have ignored in the past due to my ignorance but now I am off to take much better shots!

I have needed your video on Histograms for so long. Thanks so much for posting this educational and IMPORTANT video.

Awesome Paul. Thanks so much for helping me understand the histogram chart and learning how to use it for better results. No one has explained this any simpler than you. Love your videos!! Maybe do one soon on flashes?

Once again Paul, you knocked it out of the park with this video. Absolutely the best explanation of histograms that I’ve seen. Clear, concise, unpretentious information, all wrapped up with good visuals.

Wow, thanks Dave - I'm a big fan of breaking things down and explaining in layman's terms, showing example and using diagrams and visuals, for that reason a video like this typically takes 2-3 days to complete. Really appreciate your feedback and support. Paul.

At last, an explanation I have understood. It's really quite simple, once you know how to navigate your camera controls and you've just shown me how to do that. As a relative newcomer to photography, I really appreciate your guidance and I shall continue watching your uploads. Thank you.

Clear understanding thanks

Thank you so much for the in depth tutorial. Till now, I was exposing for the highlights which was giving me very dark shadows and relatively darker mid tones which was really problematic to recover in post. Everybody was giving wrong information till I found this video. I am sure this will make a lot of difference in my photography . Thanks again.

There are so many tutorial out there about histogram, this is the easiest and simplest tutorial that I can understand! Thanks Paul! Appreciate that!

Great job. I'm a beginner when it comes to histograms, tho I'm not a beginner to photography. I got interested in histograms when my brother dramatically improved a telephoto bird photo I'd taken. Now I'm very interested. Your video is a terrific place for me to start me on a new and fun journey toward even better photos. Thanks so much.

I had no clue how to interpret the histogram. Thank you for this clear explanation. It is most helpful.

SUPER helpful - thank you!

Everything I need to know in a condensed format, in just 15 minutes . Brilliant, or should I have said, overexposed ! Jokes aside, this was a no nonsense complete, yet condensed version of everything I needed to know as a beginner to the histogram . Thank You !!

Thanks, Paul you always clear things up for me.

Nicely! Done. Precise & perfect details. Thanks! Paul.

Thank you, Paul! I never had any idea what a histogram was for or how to use it! It a great tool!

Thank you for this!!!

very well explained...learned a lot today...thank you Paul

Thank you. I looked all over the web. Your video tutorial is the absolute best for explaining the histogram and how to use it to produce great photos.

WOW!! Thank you so very much. Your explanations of the histogram is amazing. Your use of photos and showing of the histogram really helped me, for I learn visually and this was perfect. The showing of how we could use the exposure meter in live view matching with the histogram, I learned a lot. This is a practice I need to apply when shooting. Very educational for someone who is still fairly new to the DSLR side. Thank you again.

Great tips as always. Way to go...

Many, many thanks- so clearly explained.

Excellent explanation much appreciated

WOW WOW WOW you just blew my mind. I'm sitting here in London Ontario Canada and watched that video its 12:15 am and now i cant wait to get out tomorrow and fill a video card with your techniques thank you Paul. You explain things that i can understand and want to run out to try

Very well explained!!

Finally got it... such an easy and amazing explanation.

Really clear explanation of histograms. Another excellent tutorial from Paul. Well done and thank you.

Brilliant. Thank you.

I've wondered what that was for but not anymore. Thanks for the great explanation and use of the histogram. Your videos and tutorials are very well done. 👏

Thanks Paul, now got a better idea of how it works, why and how to use it. Love the way you break the topics down to explain them, brilliant.

Outstanding explanation. Thank you.
