- The overexposure (OE) indicator identifies blown-out areas in the shot and in which color channel(s) it occurred.
- RawDigger allows users to determine exposure meter calibration, establish headroom in highlights, and achieve optimal exposures.
- It simplifies comparing raw histogram to in-camera histogram for exposing images to the right.
- Users can determine how much shadows are underexposed and set the Underexposure (UE) indicator accordingly.
- RawDigger helps analyze per-channel underexposure based on light color for evaluating light setups and filters' effects.
