I found elsewhere under the (red) camera /7 setting. Exposure simulation must be enabled. All set now. Thanks.

That is true, histogram only displays when Exposure Simulation is ON, which makes no sense to me because the simulated exposure already provides most of the info containted in the histogram.   

I often shoot in dark environments and always keep Exposure Simulation OFF for better visibility through the viewfinder.  I limit my max ISO and need the histogram to see how much I am underexposing, yet it is missing in that case.
