Re: Histogram in Manual Mode Fujifilm X-S10

I use the Histogram because it is a very useful tool for ambient light exposure (better than the '+-' indicator.). Yes I would not expect a Histogram to predict the flash exposure. The camera is not controlling the flash units (the flash power level can be controlled for each individual flash unit independently of the camera). Often Flash is just being used to fill in the ambient light.
So, it is useful to use a Histogram to meter the ambient light without having the viewfinder darken, and without the need to turn Exposure Preview ON and OFF.
However, it appears what I am asking for is not possible. Many thanks for your patient responses.
