Need help with getting histogram to display while shooting

Hello Experts,

 

I have a Canon 5Ds and would like to know how to enable the Histogram while shooting.

 

I've searched the internet as well as the manual, strangely enough, the only information available is for playback.

 

Instruction to enable this feature would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Lim

Expo. Simulation Enable is the default. It was probably reset when you reset camera settings.

Using the rear screen, I want to keep the Histogram on while making adjustments to exposure. It seems when you try to change aperture or shutter speed or EV (depending on your mode) the histogram turns off. How can you get the histogram to stay on while making these adjustments?

Hello @mmills79 can you please start a new thread. This will help cut down on confusion between the OP and Forum members. This will better assist you for your specific camera. Different cameras will have different menu options or features not found in some cameras.
