Forums: Index > Help desk > Access to Histogram data from uBasic?


Is it possible to get at the histogram data from a uBasic script? I'd like to try to create an "Expose to the Right" script. The basic notion of EttR is that you expose such that no pixel is overexposed, thus giving yourself the most data to work with when processing the RAW later.

So the script would basically be cranking down the exposure until the right-most (white) bin of the histogram goes to zero, and then maybe turning it back up by the smallest step possible (1/3EV?)

But unless I've missed it, there's no place to get at that data. If that's true, I'll post this to the Suggestions page as well.
