For me the 16bit Histogram is one of the most important features in SilverFast. It’s a perfect tool for setting highlights and shadows in my images.
Statistical Distribution of Grey Shades between Black and White
A histogram is a graphical representation of statistical frequency values. In image processing, it is well suited to represent the tonal distribution of gray or color values.

A histogram visualizes the distribution of brightness values of an digital image and allows to predict contrast range and brightness. The histogram is a great tool to recognize and correct typical image errors such as under- and overexposure. Thus, the histogram is one of the most important SilverFast features.
