I have read my manual but can't find a way. As it is right now you have to veiw the picture (which takes forever when using RAW) and then push info. I am doing a wedding this weekend and won't have time for that between shots. 5D.

When you take your shots and get your preview it'll display the preview in that mode. _______________

Nov 17, 2006 10:50 | #3 That didn't work- it went back to just the picture as soon as I took the next shot. 5D. Digital Rebel, 24-70L, EF 18-55mm kit lens, EF 35-80mm, EF 70-300mm, Nifty-fifty, Sigma DG Super, Excaliber 3200 lights

Does the XT have the same option? All I see in the menu is a setting for the review time. Ray

Well I don't see that as an option anywhere and I can't find anything in the manual either. Ray

Thanks. Apparently I misunderstood what the OP had asked. I was looking for just a full screen histogram without the image being displayed. I assume that's not possibe. Ray

Besides, I find it to be very useful for gauging correct exposure to see both the shape of the histogram AND the blinking highlights, if any.
